engineering recuitment UKPSC Polytechnic Lecturer Mock Test 2024 Strength of Materials Deflection of Beam
A simply supported beam of span 'L' is carrying uniformly distributed load 'w' on the entire span. If uniformly distributed load is replaced by a concentrated load 'W' at centre such that it produces same deflection at centre. Keeping all other parameters same, ratio of 'W' to 'w' will be:
1
\(\dfrac{5L}{8}\)
2
\(\dfrac{5L}{48EI}\)
3
\(\dfrac{L}{8}\)
4
\(\dfrac{8L}{5}\)
