Question 79
XE-DMCQ2 marksNeeds review
Consider an electric pole with dimensions as shown in the figure. Let the end R be subjected to a vertical force F. The flexural rigidity of both vertical and horizontal bars is EI. Neglect the axial deflection of the vertical bar, and all effects of self-weight. The vertical deflection at end R is
