Test: Shear Force & Bending Moment - 2 - Question 1

In a continuous curve of bending moment, the point of zero bending moment, where it changes sign is called

Test: Shear Force & Bending Moment - 2 - Question 2

The beam is loaded as shown in figure. Select the correct BM diagram

Detailed Solution: Question 2

BMD will be of 2nd degree, so the correct answer is (d).

Test: Shear Force & Bending Moment - 2 - Question 3

The structure shown in the figure below will be stable if

Detailed Solution: Question 3


∴  2x2 = y2

Test: Shear Force & Bending Moment - 2 - Question 4

A beam 8 m long, simply supported at the ends, carries a point load of 1000 N at the mid-span. The bending moment under the load is

Detailed Solution: Question 4

Test: Shear Force & Bending Moment - 2 - Question 5

A simply supported beam is loaded as shown in the above figure below.

The maximum shear force in the beam will be 

Detailed Solution: Question 5


Taking moment about A = 0

R2 = 2W
But, ∑Fv = 0
⇒ W + 2W + W - R1 - R2 = 0 
⇒ R1 = 4W - 2W = 2W

Test: Shear Force & Bending Moment - 2 - Question 6

Which one of the following portions of the loaded beam shown in the given figure is subjected to pure bending?

Detailed Solution: Question 6

Since the given beam is loaded symmetrically, therefore the reactions at each suportwill be equal i.e. W

In section BD, shear force is zero. Hence this section subjected to pure bending.

Test: Shear Force & Bending Moment - 2 - Question 7

The point of contraflexure in a beam is at the location where the

Detailed Solution: Question 7

In a bending beam, the point of contraflexure in a beam is the location where the bending moment is zero and changes its sign. The point of contraflexure (PoC) occurs where bending is zero and at the point of change between positive and negative (or between compression and tension). 

Test: Shear Force & Bending Moment - 2 - Question 8

The rate of change of bending moment is equal to

Detailed Solution: Question 8

M = V · x
dM/dx = V
i.e. Rate of change of bending moment is shear force.

Test: Shear Force & Bending Moment - 2 - Question 9

The BM diagram of the beam shown in figure is

Detailed Solution: Question 9

Taking moments about A. We get 
M - R2 + L = 0
⇒ R2 = M/L
Since these is no vertical loading hence the reactions are equal and oposite.
Bending moment is given by

Test: Shear Force & Bending Moment - 2 - Question 10

A cantilever carrying uniformly distributed load W over its full length is propped at its free end such that it is at the level of the fixed end. The bending moment will be zero at its free end and also at
