Transcribed Image Text:### Problem 5.79
#### Problem Statement:
For the beam and loading of Problem 5.78, determine:
(a) the distance \( a \) for which \( w_A = 20 \, \text{kN/m} \),
(b) the corresponding value of \( w_B \).
#### Diagram Details:
- The beam is subjected to a linearly varying distributed load and two concentrated loads.
- The distributed load starts at \( w_A \) at the left end (point A) and varies linearly to \( w_B \) at the right end (point B).
- There are two concentrated loads acting downwards:
- A 24 kN load located 0.6 meters from point A.
- A 30 kN load located 0.3 meters from point B.
- The total length of the beam from point A to point B is 1.8 meters.
#### Figure Description:
- Fig. P5.78 displays the beam with the distributed and concentrated loads.
- The distributed load is represented by a series of downward arrows starting from \( w_A \) at point A and increasing linearly to \( w_B \) at point B.
- The beam is shown horizontally with designated distances for the concentrated loads and overall length:
- The distance from point A to the point where the 24 kN load is applied is 0.6 meters.
- The distance from point B to the point where the 30 kN load is applied is 0.3 meters.
- The total length of the beam is 1.8 meters.
These details will help determine the distance \( a \) and the corresponding value of \( w_B \) using the principles of static equilibrium and the conditions described in the problem statement.
