A Simply Supported Beam with Proportional Loading (P = 4 $5.7 \mathrm{kN} \cdot \mathrm{m}$

question 76

Short Answer

A simply supported beam with proportional loading (P = 4.1 kN) has span length L = 5m. Load P is 1.2 m from support A and load 2P is
1.5 m from support B. The bending moment just left of load 2P is approx-
Imately: (A) $5.7 \mathrm{kN} \cdot \mathrm{m}$
(B) $6.2 \mathrm{kN} \cdot \mathrm{m}$
(C) $9.1 \mathrm{kN} \cdot \mathrm{m}$
(D) $10.1 \mathrm{kN} \cdot \mathrm{m}$
