Question 4: (6 points) For the beam in Question 3, suppose that instead of the simple support on the right end, we instead have a fixed support instead. (a) (3 points) Calculate the deflection function y(x) for this beam assuming small deflections. Hint: you can use your solution from Question 3 with the different boundary conditions. (b) (3 points) Which of the two beams has the larger maximum (magnitude of) deflection, and by how much (assuming small deflections)?
