Problem 11.2 - By Integration of Moment Equation

Problem Statement

A cantilever beam of length L = 1.5 m is subjected to a linear distributed load where w₀ = 1 kN/m. Determine the magnitude of the slope of the beam at the free end. Assume EI = 10 kN-m².

Figure 1: A cantilever beam is subjected to the loading shown.
