For the beam shown in Figure $2$:

$($a$)$ On a sketch of the structure, show the possible reaction components at the supports and sketch the deflected shape of the beam.

$($b$)$ Using the equations of equilibrium, solve for the reaction components.

$($c$)$ Draw the Axial Force, Shear Force and Bending Moment Diagrams. Show the locations and magnitudes of maximum and minimum values.
