Question: A beam of length L and constant flexural rigidity E l is subjected to an applied moment M 0 at the end x = L

A beam of length L and constant flexural rigidity El is subjected to an applied moment M0 at the end x=L :
Total Points: 20
The resulting deflection y(x) is given by the following equation:
y(x)=M06EIL(L2x-x3).
(a) Determine the location of the maximum deflection. (Hint: find (x)=dydx; let (x)=0 and solve for x)(10 points)
(b) Determine the magnitude of the maximum deflection. (5 points)
(c) Determine the slope (x)=dydx at x=0.(5 points)
