yes and no. When you point it at a wall, it ends there. When you point it towards the sky then it doesn't end. You just cant see it go all the way.

Condition that will increase the moment in beam?

Increasing the force applied to the beam or increasing the distance from the force to the point of interest on the beam will increase the moment in the beam. Additionally, changing the angle of the force relative to the beam will also affect the moment.


Why does a laser beam seem to have a finite end?

A laser beam appears to have a finite end because of the way light scatters and diverges over distance due to diffraction and dispersal. This phenomenon causes the light to spread out, making the beam appear to gradually fade away rather than continue indefinitely.


If a light beam travels for the entire lifetime of the universe how far does it go?

A light beam that travels for the entire lifetime of the universe would cover a distance of approximately 13.8 billion light-years. This is because the observable universe is estimated to be about 13.8 billion years old in terms of light-travel distance.


What is the difference between a beam fixed at both ends and a cantilever beam?

A cantilever has only one end or point fixed; this is an obvious difference between having two points or both ends fixed. The nature of bending moment is same throughout the span in the case of a cantilever beam whereas a fixed beam has both types of nature, i.e. sagging as well as hogging.


What are the names to parts of a balance scale?

The main parts of a balance scale are the beam, pan (or platform), fulcrum, pointer, and base. The beam is the horizontal rod that holds the pans on each end, while the fulcrum is the point where the beam pivots. The pointer indicates when the scale is balanced, and the base provides stability for the entire structure.

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.
