- Homework Statement
- Finding the bending moment caused by force P at point A
- Relevant Equations
- My incorrect solution: P multiplied by perpendicular distance from point A so the equation becomes=M=P*b2
But the correct solution is M= P* (b2+b1). I don't understand how b2+b1 is the perpendicular distance.
