Question: For the beam and loading shown, determine ( a ) the equation of the elastic curve for portion A B of the beam, ( b

For the beam and loading shown, determine
(a) the equation of the elastic curve for portion AB of the beam,
(b) the slope at A,
(c) the slope at B.
Step 1: Draw FBD and find reactions at A and B
Step 2: Derive formula for Moment M(x) between A and M(x)EIEI1=EId2ydx2=M(x)
EI~~EIdydx=0xM(x)dx+C1
EIy=0xdnt0xM(x)dx+C1x+C2 integrations C1 and C2y(x)(x)
For the beam and loading shown, determine ( a )
