Question: Problem # 3 . ( 4 0 points ) . For the simply supported beam shown in Figure # 2 : Figure # 2 .

Problem #3.(40 points). For the simply supported beam shown in Figure #2:
Figure #2. Simply Supported Beam for Problem #3.
Find:
(10 points). The reactions at the supports A and B.
(10 points). The slope or rotation at the point A,A=dydx, in radians.
(10 points). Draw the beam's deflection along the length of the beam, from x=0 to x=L.
(10 points). The beam's maximum deflection of the beam, ymax.
The governing equation of the elastic curve (or deflection curve) of a beam is given by:
Where:
d2y(x)dx2=M(x)EI
y(x):= is the deflection of the beam.
M(x):= is the internal moment as a function of x.
EI:= is the beam's flexural rigidity (assumed known and constant).
