Strength Of Materials

Direction: A triangular-shaped cantilever beam of uniformthickness is shown in the figure. The Young's modulus of the material of the beam is E. A concentrated load P is applied at the free end of the beam.

  1. The area moment of inertia about the neutral axis of a cross-section at a distance x measured from the free end is
    1. bxt³
      61
    2. bxt³
      121
    3. bxt³
      241

    4. xt³
      121
Correct Option: B

At a distance of x from the free end width

b' =
bx
l

∴  Moment of Inertia Ix =
bxt³
12l
