Question

7–3. Determine the slope at C, and the deflection at B of the bar.

**Problem 7-3: Deflection and Slope Calculation for a Beam**

**Objective:**  
Determine the slope at point \( C \) and the deflection at point \( B \) of the bar as outlined in Problem 7-2.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The beam is horizontal and simply supported at point \( A \) and at a fixed support at point \( B \). The bar is subjected to a 200 lb force acting downward at point \( C \).

- **Support at \( A \):** The left end of the beam is supported in a manner allowing rotation and horizontal movement. 
- **Fixed support at \( B \):** The right end of the beam is fixed, preventing any movement.
- **Load at \( C \):** A concentrated load of 200 lb is applied downward at the midpoint (\( C \)) of the beam.

The beam is 16 feet long in total, with 8 feet from \( A \) to \( C \), and 8 feet from \( C \) to \( B \).

**Measurement Units:**

- Distance: Feet (ft)
- Force: Pounds (lb)

**Problem Reference:**

This problem continues from an earlier one (Prob. 7–2), which provides additional context or constraints for solving for the slope and deflection.
