A beam is subjected to a system of coplanar forces as shown in the figure. The magnitude of vertical reaction at Support P is ______ N (round off to one decimal place).

Consider the beam shown in the figure (not to scale), on a hinge support at end A and a roller support at end B. The beam has a constant flexural rigidity, and is subjected to the external moments of magnitude M at one-third spans, as shown in the figure. Which of the following statements is/are TRUE?

Given that the modulus of elasticity, $$E$$ is $$2.5 \times {10^4}\,\,MPa;$$ and the moment of inertia, $${\rm I}$$ is $$8 \times {10^3}\,\,m{m^4},$$ the correct comparison of the magnitudes of the shear force $$S$$ and the bending moment $$M$$ developed at the supports is
