A beam ABCD rests on simple supports at B and C. The beam has a slight initial curvature so that end A is 15 mm above the elevation of the supports and end D is 10 mm above. What is the load Q (if P= 3200 N), acting at points A and D, respectively, will move points A and D downward to the level of the supports? (The flexural rigidity El of the beam is 2.5x 106 N -m².)

A beam ABCD rests on simple supports at B and C. The beam
has a slight initial curvature so that end A is 15 mm above the
elevation of the supports and end D is 10 mm above. What is
the load Q (if P= 3200 N), acting at points A and D,
respectively, will move points A and D downward to the level
of the supports?
