A stekel beam ABC is simply supported at A and held by a high-strength steel wire at B (see figure). A load P = 240 lb acts at the free end C. The wire has axial rigidity EA = 1500 x 103 lb, and the beam has flexural rigidity EI = 36 x 106 lb-in.2 What is the deflection δC of point C due to the load P?
