Ecs 208 - Basic Solid Mechanics: Assignment 2 QUESTION 1 (CO3 PO1&PO3)

This document contains two questions from an assignment on solid mechanics. Question 1 involves determining the deflection and slope of an overhanging beam that is subjected to a uniformly distributed load using integration methods. Question 2 (a) involves calculating reaction torques, maximum torsional stresses, and rotation of a circular shaft subjected to a torque load. Part (b) asks to determine the largest torque that can be applied to a shaft made of different materials and diameters before exceeding the allowable shearing stresses.
