Figure 1 shows a beam under a linear vertical load. The equation for describing the elastic curve under this Problem 1: Bisection Method [1 pt]
Figure 1 shows a beam under a linear vertical load. The equation for describing the elastic curve under this load can be derived as (Figure 1(b))
y=w0120EIL(-x5+2L2x3-L4x)
Your job would be to locate the point with maximum deflection on the beam. That is, to find x such that dydx=0. Use bisection method along with the following values in your calculation: L=600cm,E=50,000kNcm2,I=30,000cm4, and w0=2.5kNcm. Start with a=200cm and b=300cm, and carry out the first four iterations.

Your job would be to locate the point with maximum deflection on the beam. That is, to find x such
that dy/dx =0. Use bisection method along with the following values in your calculation: L =600 cm,
E =50,000 kN/cm2, I =30,000 cm4, and w0=2.5 kN/cm. Start with a =200 cm and b =300 cm, and

5.14 You buy a $35,000 vehicle for nothing down at $8,500
per year for 7 years. Use the bisect function from Fig. 5.7
to determine the interest rate that you are paying. Employ
initial guesses for the interest rate of 0.01 and 0.3 and a stop-
ping criterion of 0.00005. The formula relating present
worth P, annual payments A, number of years n, and interest
rate i is
A = P i(1+ i)n
