The beam AB is subjected to the uniformly distributed load shown and to two unknown forces P and Q. Knowing that it has been experimentally determined that the bending moment is +7 kN · m at D and +5 kN · m at E, 

(a) Determine P and Q, 

(b) Draw the shear and bending-moment diagrams for the beam.
