Problem 620
Find the midspan deflection δ for the beam shown in Fig. P-620, carrying two triangularly distributed loads. (Hint: For convenience, select the origin of the axes at the midspan position of the elastic curve.)
Problem 616
For the beam loaded as shown in Fig. P-616, determine (a) the deflection and slope under the load P and (b) the maximum deflection between the supports.
Problem 608
Find the equation of the elastic curve for the cantilever beam shown in Fig. P-608; it carries a load that varies from zero at the wall to wo at the free end. Take the origin at the wall.
