Which one have more deflection hollow beam or solid beam?

solid beam have more deflection


Why does a longer beam length mean greater deflection?

Deflection of beam depends upon load and length of beam. Larger the beam, larger will be it's selfweight


What is propped simply supported beam?

A cantilever beam is a beam which is fixed at one end ( no translation or rotation). A propped cantilever beam is a beam which is fixed at one end ( no translation or rotation) and simply supported ( no translation) at the other end. A cantilever beam is a beam which is fixed at one end ( no translation or rotation). A simply supported beam is a beam which is simply supported at both ends. A propped simply supported beam is a beam which is simply supported at both ends and simply supported at some other point such as at the center, to reduce deflection under load. Propped beams are statically indeterminate.


What is the advantage and disadvantages of fixed beams?

There isn't really an advantage of having a fixed beam vs. a simply supported beam, it depends on what application the beam is for. If one of the design criteria of the beam is that it be able to deflect from one end to another then you are going to want to use a fixed beam. For example such applications could include a diving bored. A simply supported beam differs from a fixed beam because the beam is supported at both ends. Thus when a simply supported beam is loaded, the deflection will occur throughout the beam, since the ends are confined and will remain as they were. Furthermore on a fixed beam, (the end that is fixed) will have restrictive forces and moments keeping the end from moving.


What is a deflection in cantilever beam?

it will depend upon the load and moment applied on the beam.

Is a triple beam balance the same thing as a double pan balance?

No, a triple beam balance and a double pan balance are not the same thing. A triple beam balance has three beams for measurement, while a double pan balance has two pans for balancing weights. Both are commonly used for measuring mass in scientific settings.


What are the differences between triple beam balance and the double pan balance?

A triple beam balance has three beams for measuring mass, while a double pan balance has two pans for comparing masses. Triple beam balances are typically more precise and accurate than double pan balances. Triple beam balances are commonly used in laboratories, while double pan balances are often used in classrooms for basic measurements.


What are the functions of double beam balance?

A double beam balance is used to compare the masses of two objects. It provides a more accurate measurement of mass than a spring scale. The two beams allow for fine adjustments to achieve balance, ensuring an accurate reading.


Is a triple bean balance or spring scale or double pan balance better to weigh rocks?

i am pretty sure its a triple beam balance


What is the function of double beam balance?

A double beam balance is used to measure the mass of an object by comparing it to known masses on the balance pans. The two beams allow for a more precise measurement by fine-tuning the comparison between the unknown mass and the known masses.


What does a double pan balance measure?

mass. That scientific, or laboratory instrument, is usually called a Beam Balance.


What is another name for the triple beam balance?

A common alternative name for the triple beam balance is the triple beam scale.


How wide is a balance beam?

A balance beam is 4 in. wide


How do you make beam balance model?

you can make a beam balance by putting a coloum in the centre of the beam


What are the advantages and disadvantages of the beam balance scale?

Through beam balance we can weight things,vegetables,fruit etc.


What is the specialty of triple beam balance?

A triple beam balance is more accurate than a spring operated balance.


Triple-beam balance definition?

A triple beam balance is a scale used to measuremass.
