Maxwell's Reciprocal Theorem 1
Consider a linear elastic body. When a concentrated gravity load P=100kN is applied downwards to point A of the body, it causes point B of the body to deflect upwards by 5mm. Based on this fact, a concentrated gravity load Q=50kN applied downwards at point B will cause point A to deflect:
Select one:
a.10mm downwards
b.2.5mm downwards
c.2.5mm upwards
d. undetermined
e.10 mm upwards
