11. a) i) Derive an expression for the elevation at the centre of the beam
which is loaded at both ends.
ii) A Cantilever of steel fixed horizontally is subjected to a load of 225 gm
at its free end. The geometric moment of inertia of the cantilever is
4.5×10–11m4. If the length of cantilever and Young’s modulus of steel
are 1 m and 200×109 Pa respectively, calculate the depression at the
loaded end.
