For the simply supported beam shown below,

a$.$ Find the support reactions at point A and D$.$

b$.$ Determine the normal force, shear force, and bending moment acting points $B$ and $C.$

Note: Point B is just to the left of the $6$ kN force on the beam and point C is just to the right of the $6$ kN force on the beam.
