### Statics Problem - Beam Analysis
**Diagram Explanation:**
The schematic illustrates a simply supported beam with a total length of 25 meters. The beam rests on a hinge at the left support (point A) and a roller at the right support (point B). It is subjected to the following loads and moments:
- A concentrated moment of 750 kN·m at section C.
- A concentrated force of 300 kN at section D.
- A distributed load of 15 kN/m applied over sections E to B.
**Section Lengths:**
- AC = 5 m
- CD = 5 m
- DE = 5 m
- EB = 10 m
**Problem Statement:**
1. **Reaction Forces:**
- Determine the reaction forces at supports A and B.
- Indicate the directions in which these forces act.
- Note: This question serves as a pass/no-pass "minimum-proficiency test" for Statics.
2. **Shear Function V(x):**
- Determine the shear function \( V(x) \) along the x domains:
- AC (0 ≤ x ≤ 5 m)
- CD (5 m ≤ x ≤ 10 m)
- DE (10 m ≤ x ≤ 15 m)
- EB (15 m ≤ x ≤ 25 m)
- Draw the shear diagram for the entire beam.
- Note: Use the reference axis x as indicated in the diagram.
3. **Moment Function M(x):**
- Determine the moment function \( M(x) \) along each x domain across the entire beam.
- Draw the moment diagram for the entire beam.
**Points:**
- Reaction Forces: 20 points
- Shear Function: 20 points
- Moment Function: 20 points
**Notes:**
- Follow the reference x-axis as shown in the diagram.
- The uniform distributed load begins at section E and continues to section B.
This structured approach aims to enhance understanding of how forces and moments distribute along a beam, essential for aspiring civil or structural engineers.
