Strength Of Materials

Direction: A triangular-shaped cantilever beam of uniformthickness is shown in the figure. The Young's modulus of the material of the beam is E. A concentrated load P is applied at the free end of the beam.

  1. The maximum deflection of the beam is
    1. 24Pl³
      Ebt³
    2. 12Pl³
      Ebt³
    3. 8Pl³
      Ebt³
    4. 6Pl³
      Ebt³
Correct Option: D
