Group I contains beams with different types of supports and loading conditions (P: Simply supported beam with central point load $F$; Q: Simply supported beam with UDL $w=F/L$; R: Cantilever beam with tip point load $F$; S: Cantilever beam with UDL $w=F/L$). The beams have the same flexural rigidity $EI$ and span $L$. Group II contains the maximum deflections: (1) $\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{FL^3}{EI}\right)$, (2) $\frac{1}{8}\left(\frac{FL^3}{EI}\right)$, (3) $\frac{1}{48}\left(\frac{FL^3}{EI}\right)$, (4) $\frac{5}{384}\left(\frac{FL^3}{EI}\right)$. Match the beam from Group I with the maximum deflection given in Group II.
