The beam AC is simply supported with a pin at A and roller at B, and with a distributed load applied across its overhanging length BC. The beam has the same U-shaped cross section along its entire length (see the "end view" below) and is made of steel with modulus of elasticity E = 200 GPa. Find expression for the bending moment M(x) and deflection v(x) of the entire beam, and use these to find: a) The maximum normal stress in the beam, either in tension or compression. Explain how you determined the location of the largest amplitude of normal stress. b) The maximum upward and downward deflections of the beam. Hint: just like in calculus, maxima may occur when v'(x) = 0 and/or at the end(s) of the beam
