A cantilever beam having a rectangular cross-section of width 60 mm and depth 100 mm, is made of aluminum alloy. The material mechanical properties are: Young's modulus, E=73 GPa and ultimate stress, σu=480 MPa. Assuming a factor of safety of 4, the maximum bending moment (in kN-m) that can be applied on the beam is ________ (accurate to one decimal place).

Correct : 12.0 to 12.0
