Question

Transcribed Image Text:The image shows a structural beam subjected to a varying distributed load.
- The beam has a total length of 3 meters, divided into three segments: 1.5 meters, 0.75 meters, and 0.75 meters.
- The load varies linearly across the beam. On the left segment (1.5 meters), the load is 8 kN/m at the left end and reduces to 5 kN/m at the junction with the middle segment.
- On the middle and right segments (each 0.75 meters), the distributed load remains at 5 kN/m.
- The load is downward as indicated by the arrows along the length of the beam.
- The point O is located at the left end of the beam.
The caption below the diagram asks: "What is the moment induced by this distributed load at O (kN.m)?"
This setup is typically used in statics to study how distributed loads generate moments at specific points on a beam.
