Figure shows an elastic beam of constant flexural rigidity EI and length . L The transverse deflection ( ) v x for the beam is represented by the equation ( ) 3 2 0 ( ) (4 ), v x M x x L EI L = − where 0 M is the applied couple. If 100mm L = and 0 100 N-mm M = , then the magnitude of the shear force (in N) at the middle of the beam (at / 2) x L = is __________
