Let us consider an element PQ of the beam of length dx, at a di
OP = x from the fixed end. Let ‘C’ be the centre of curvature of the el
PQ and let ‘R’ be the radius of curvature
Due to the load applied at the free end of the cantilever, an
Couple is created between the load W at ‘A’ and the force of reacti
Here, the arm of the couple (Distance between the two equal
forces) is (/-x)
The external bending moment = W > (l-x)
We know the internal bending moment =
We know under equilibrium condition,Therefore, we can write ‘Egn.(1)=" Ban-(2)

Two tangents are drawn at points P and Q, which meet the
AA‘ at T and S respectively.
Let the smallest depression produced from T to S = dy ~
and Let the angle between the (wo tangents = d@
Then we can write
The angle between CP and CQ is also d@ (i.e) ZPCQ = d0.
We can write the arc length PQ = Rd@ =de

From the AQA'S we can write sin dQ —
If d@ is very small then we can write,
