Question: Problem 2 . [ 5 ] A cantilever beam, with elastic modulus ( ( E ) ) , second moment of area (

Problem 2.[5] A cantilever beam, with elastic modulus \((E)\), second moment of area (I) and length (L), is subject to a uniformly distributed load (\( w \)) with an end point load \((P)\) and fixed end moment (M). Determine
a) the exact analytical solution for the deflection, moment and shear force along the beam length, and
b) using a cubic polynomial displacement field, compare the Rayleigh Ritz solution with the exact analytical solution. Check your solution with the boundary conditions and ordinary differential equation of motion.
