Problem Instructions: The cutting plane should pass through the midspan of the beam. From the midspan of the beam, consider 3 sections to the left, and 3 sections to the right. Each section should have its own free body diagram. Show that the internal forces at the left section is equal with the right section.   NOTE: For consistency and accuracy, intermediate values must not be rounded off. Final answers must be expressed in four decimal places (final answers only). Final answers should not be expressed in terms of fraction or pi.   Indicate proper units as specified in the problem.
