Question: A straight prismatic beam AD has a rectangular cross - section with width ( b ) and height ( h )

A straight prismatic beam AD has a rectangular cross-section with width \( b \) and height \( h \). Its total length is \(4 l \). Its Young's modulus is \( E \). The beam is subjected to distributed load \( q \) per unit length, as shown in the figure below.
(1) Please use the energy method to determine the deflection, \( v \), at \( x=l \).
(2) Please use the energy method to determine the slope of the deflection curve, \( v^{\prime}\), at \( x=3 l \).
