A concentrated load $$P$$ acts on a simply supported beam of span $$L$$ at a distance $${L \over 3}$$ from the left support. The bending moment at the point of application of the load is given by

A block of steel is loaded by a tangential force on its top surface while the bottom surface is held rigidly. The deformation of the block is due to

For a simply supporting beam on two end supports the Bending Moment is maximum:
