Given: The tip deflection and tip slope for a tip loaded cantilever of length L are: NL3/(3EI) and NL2/(2EI), respectively, where N is the tip force and EI is the flexural rigidity. A cantilever PQ of rectangular cross-section is subjected to transverse load, F, at its mid-point. Two cases are considered as shown in the figure. In Case I, the end Q is free and in Case II, Q is simply supported. The ratio of the magnitude of the maximum bending stress at P in Case I to that in Case II is _______. (rounded off to one decimal place) 
Correct : 2.6 to 2.7
