Pick up the correct statement from the following

Which of the following statement is true for a flitched beam?

A fixed beam is subjected to a point load at distance L/3 from the left end will have the deflected shape as

Macaulay’s method of finding deflection is suitable only for

(i) beams having varying flexural rigidity

(ii) Prismatic beams only

(iii) beams subjected to various point loads

(iv) Beam subjected to uniformly distributed loading

Statement 1: Maximum deflection in the beam shown in the figure will occur at free end of the beam.

Statement 2: Maximum deflection in a cantilever beam generally occurs at a point where slope is zero.

The free end of a cantilever beam of length L and having circular cross section is deflected by an amount δ due to a point load of magnitude W at its free end. What will be the deflection of the free end if the diameter of the beam is doubled to its previous value.
