101.

A load which acts at a point on a beam is not called uniformly distributed load.

Agree

Disagree

102.

A uniformly distributed load may be assumed to behave like a point load at the centre of gravity of the load for all sorts of calculations.

Right

Wrong

103.

A load which is spread over a beam in such a manner that it varies uniformly over the whole length of a beam is called uniformly

distributed

varying

104.

The shear force at a point on a beam is the algebraic

sum

difference

105.

The bending moment at a point on a beam is the algebraic

sum

difference

106.

The bending moment on a section is maximum where shear force is

A.	minimum	B.	maximum
C.	changing sign	D.	zero

107.

The shear force at a certain point on a beam changes sign form +ve value to -ve value or vice versa. The bending moment at that point will be zero.

True

False

108.

When a load on the free end of a cantilever beam is increased, failure will occur

A.	at the free end	B.	at the fixed end
C.	in the middle of the beam	D.	at a distance 21 / 3 from free end

109.

The bending moment at the free end of a cantilever beam is

A.	zero	B.	minimum
C.	maximum

110.

When a cantilever beam is loaded with concentrated loads, the bending moment diagram will be a

A.	horizontal straight line	B.	vertical straight line
C.	inclined straight line	D.	parabolic curve
