  • Q1. What is bending moment for a cantilever beam.
  • Ans. 

    Bending moment is the measure of the bending effect on a beam when an external force is applied to it.

    • Bending moment is the product of the force applied and the distance from the force to the point of support.

    • It causes the beam to bend and can lead to failure if the stress exceeds the material's strength.

    • Cantilever beams have one end fixed and the other end free, making them more susceptible to bending moments.

    • Bending ...

  • Q2. Why forced vibration depends upon time function.
  • Ans. 

    Forced vibration depends on time function due to the periodic nature of the external force.

    • Forced vibration is caused by an external force acting on a system.

    • The external force is usually periodic in nature.

    • The response of the system to the external force is also periodic.

    • The time function of the external force determines the frequency and amplitude of the system's response.
