Derive equations that describe the vertical deflection of the beam, y(x). B L/2 L/2

For the figure below solve for the deflection at midpoint C using virtual work method. E=200GPa and beam is S130x15

determine the sign and magnitude of (a) the slope at end A, (b) the deflection at end A (use method of superposition) P MA = Pa C A a- B L

Problem: Determine the deflection specified in each of the following beams. Use only one method to solve for each. You can choose which method to use in each beam, as long as all three must be used in one of the beams. Assume constant El. Use E = 200 GPa and I = 800 x 106 mm² for all beams. 2.)
