Question
Given: P = 750 N, M = 220 N*m
Find the normal force, shear force, and bending moment at points D and E of the compound beam.
Not sure how to do this one. Would appreciate a full solution, thanks!

Transcribed Image Text:**Description of Diagram:**
The diagram illustrates a beam, labeled \( ABEC \), positioned horizontally and supported at its ends.
- **Point A:** The left end of the beam is embedded in a wall.
- **Points D, B, and E:** Intermediate points marked on the beam at specific intervals.
- **Point C:** The right end of the beam, which is supported and carries a moment \( M \).
**Dimensions:**
- The section \( AD \) is 2 meters long.
- The section \( DB \) is 2 meters long.
- The section \( BE \) is 4 meters long.
- The section \( EC \) is 2 meters long.
- The total length \( AC \) of the beam is 10 meters.
**Forces:**
- A downward force \( P \) is applied vertically at point D.
- A moment \( M \) is acting clockwise at point C.
This depiction is a typical representation for analyzing beam reactions, moments, and shear forces in structural engineering.
