Question

Suppose we have a non$-$uniform beam that is $2\mathrm{.}95$ metres long has a flexural rigidity of $\frac{86676900}{4897-110x}N{m}^2.$

Find the deflection of the beam in millimetres if the beam is under a uniform distributed load of $86\frac{N}{m}$ and is supported with a fixed support on the left end, and a simple support on the right end. Fill out the table below with your answers.

Answer

Enter as many decimal places as your calculator allows $(8$ to $10).$ Your answer must be within $+-0\mathrm{.}0005$ of the correct answer to be considered correct.
