Question

The beam shown in the figure is subjected to a uniformly distributed downward load of intensity q between supports A and B.

Considering the upward reactions as positive, the support reactions are

• A. \(R_A=\frac {ql}{2};R_B=\frac {5ql}{2};R_C=-ql\)
• B. \(R_A=-ql;R_B=\frac {5ql}{2};R_C=\frac {ql}{2}\)
• C. \(R_A=-\frac {ql}{2};R_B=\frac {5ql}{2};R_C=0\)
• D. \(R_A=\frac {ql}{2};R_B=ql;R_C=\frac {ql}{2}\)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The correct option is (A): \(R_A=\frac {ql}{2};R_B=\frac {5ql}{2};R_C=-ql\)
