3 0

Explanation:

Equation for Impact

FΔt = ΔP,

F = force

Δt  = Impact of time

ΔP = Change in momentum

Car steering is engineered to fail in order to maximize the time of contact and hence reduce the initial impact and mitigate the damage incurred.

Road guard railing crumple on contact to maximize impact time and hence reduce impact intensity and mitigate damage.

Road safety containers are loaded with liquid or sand as they improve the period of impact.

A beam is said to be statically determinate if all of its unknown reaction components can be determined by the static equilibriu
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The correct option is propped cantilever beam.

Explanation:

A propped cantilever beam along with all the reactions is shown in the attached figure.

Since we can see that the number of unknowns are 4 but the equations of statics are only 3 thus we conclude that the beam is indeterminate to 1 degree.

For all the other beams the reactions and the equations are 3 each thus making the system determinate.
