For the beam and loading shown, use the double-integration method to determine (a) the equation of the elastic curve for the beam, (b) the maximum deflection, and (c) the slope at A. Assume that $E$ l is constant for the beam. Let $\mathrm{w}=15\mathrm{kN}/\mathrm{m},\mathrm{L}=4.0\mathrm{m},\mathrm{E}=200\mathrm{GPa}$, and $\mathrm{I}=145\times 10^6{\mathrm{mm}}^4$. Cut a cross-section through the beam at any point and draw a free body diagram. Determine the internal bending moment $M(x)$. The diagram shows $M(x)$ in its positive direction. Your answer may be negative. Check your equation by solving for $M$ at $x=2\mathrm{m}$. Answer: $\begin{array}{l}M(x=2m)=\mathrm{kN}?\mathrm{m}\end{array}$ eTextbook and Media Attempts: 0 of 2 used
