Consider a cantilevered, rectangular beam subjected to a load pro- duced by a 1 kg point mass at the (free) tip of the beam. Assume that beam material is made of Aluminum and that the beam is 11 in. long, 1 in. wide and 1/8 in. thick. 1. Based on Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, determine the deflection (in milimeters) of the beam. 2. Determine the longitudinal stress (in MPa), longitudinal strain and transverse strain at the root of the beam.
