Aerospace Engineering > GATE 2021 > Beam Deflection
The deflection y of a certain beam of length l and uniform weight per unit length w, is given as y = (w/(48EI))(2x4 - 3lx3 + l3x), where x is the distance from the point of support and EI is a constant. The nondimensional location (x/l) where the deflection of the beam is maximum, is _______. (round off to two decimal places)
Correct : 0.41 to 0.43
