Practice Questions
Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.
Question 1
Easy
What happens to beam deflection if the span length is increased?
💡 Hint: Think about how weight on a longer beam would affect bending.
Question 2
Easy
How does increasing the applied load affect deflection?
💡 Hint: Consider what happens if you add more weight to a scale.
