GATE 2023 Strength of Materials Quiz 35

A simply supported beam with rectangular cross-section is subjected to a central concentrated load. If the width and depth of the beam are doubled, then which of the following options is/are correct.

A cantilever beam of length L is load with concentrated load W midspan. The beam is propped at free end at same level as of fixed end.

(EI = constant)

A cantilever beam of rectangular cross-section is subjected to a load ‘W’ at its free end. If the depth of the beam is doubled and the load is halved. The ratio of deflection of the free end of this beam to the original beam deflection will be

A cantilever beam, 4m long, carries a uniformly distributed load our total length. If the slope at the free end is 1.5°, the deflection at the free end will be?

If a continuous beam having two spans of length 5 m each is subjected to a uniform load of intensity 4 kN/m, then determine the reaction at the midsupport in kN. State your answer upto two places after decimal.
