Step 1
To determine the concentrated load that is equivalent to the distributed load, we need to find the total force exerted by the distributed load. The distributed load is given as 2.0 kN/m over a length of 10 m, so the total force exerted by this load is: Total Show more…

The beam below is subjected to a distributed load. The distribution of the load is given as w = mx^2 kN/m. Determine the Reaction forces at the supports. Follow the following steps. i) Find the resultant force ii) Find the location centroid of the resultant force (only x-location). Use integration method and iii) Use the answers from (i) and (ii), and FBD to find the reaction forces at the supports. Please draw necessary diagram(s). (25 points) w = 2x^2 kN/m wo = 8 kN/m 2 m
