Question
**Educational Website Text Transcription:** **Problem Statement:** Determine the internal shear force at point C of the beam. Give your answer in N and to 3 significant digits. **Diagram Explanation:** The diagram illustrates a beam supported at two points, A and B, with a continuous load across its span. The beam is 6 meters in total length, divided into two equal segments of 3 meters each, between points A, C, and B. - At point A, the beam is subjected to a uniform distributed load of 200 N/m over a 3-meter length. - From point C to point B, the beam experiences a uniform distributed load of 400 N/m over the next 3-meter length. Arrows depicting the distributed loads are directed downward, indicating the direction of the forces applied on the beam. The objective is to find the shear force at the midpoint, C.
