A 3-meter-long beam is used to support a heavy object. The object has a uniform distributed load of 6 kN/m on the entire beam. The Young’s modulus and moment of inertia of the beam are 200 GPa and 5×105 mm4, respectively. The beam is supported at three positions as shown below. (a) Label the element and node numbers (either on the figure or with a new simple sketch).   (b) Determine the slopes at the three support positions of the beam.
