Physics · Mechanics of Solids
In a cantilever beam subjected to a uniformly distributed load (UDL), how does the bending moment vary along the length of the beam?
- 1The bending moment is minimum at the fixed end and maximum at the free end.
- 2The bending moment is maximum at the fixed end and zero at the free end.✓
- 3The bending moment varies linearly along the entire length.
- 4The bending moment is constant throughout the length.
Correct answer
The bending moment is maximum at the fixed end and zero at the free end.
