Question 1
Consider a beam subjected to a point load at one end and a uniformly distributed load along its length. Analyze the shear force and flexural moment at different points of the beam.
💡 Hint: Utilize the relationships defined in the section to deduce shear and moment.
Question 2
A cantilever beam is fixed at one end with a downward load applied at the free end. Calculate the flexural moment at the fixed support.
💡 Hint: Remember: Moment = Force x Distance.
