A weightless cantilever beam of span L is loaded as shown in the figure. For the entire span of the beam, the material properties are identical and the cross-section is rectangular with constant width. 3. From the flexure-critical perspective, the most economical longitudinal profile of the beam to carry the given loads amongst the options given below, is

A rigid, uniform, weightless, horizontal bar is connected to three vertical members P, Q and R as shown in the figure (not drawn to the scale). All three members have identical axial stiffness of 10 kN/mm. The lower ends of bars P and R rest on a rigid horizontal surface. When NO load is applied, a gap of 2 mm exists between the lower end of the bar Q and the rigid horizontal surface. When a vertical load W is placed on the horizontal bar in the downward direction, the bar still remains horizontal and gets displaced by 5 mm in the vertically downward direction. 2. The magnitude of the load W (in kN, round off to the nearest integer), is 2. 2. [GATE 2020: 2 Marks, Set-1]
