Consider the free-body diagram of a simply supported beam shown in Figure P9. A uniformly distributed load of magnitude w1 = 19 kN/m is applied over a section of the beam, as indicated in the figure. The span of the beam from point A to point B, is L = 19 m. The beam is in equilibrium.
Determine the due to the uniformly distributed load.
Select the correct value of F (in kN).
