Question:

A simply supported beam is loaded as shown in Figure. Using singularity functions, the shear along the beam can be expressed by the equation:

V (x) = 20[(x ? 0)¹ ? (x ? 5)¹] ? 15 (x ? 8)⁰ ? 57

By definition, the singularity function can be expressed as follows:

a whenx

Use a numerical method to find the point(s) where the shear equalszero.
