(30 pts) A simply supported beam with a span L=20 ft and cross sectional dimensions: b=14 in; h=20 in; d=17.5 in. is reinforced
with tension steel As=5 in2 . The beam supports a uniformly distributed dead load (including its own weight) DL=2.2 kips/ft and a uniformly distributed live load LL=1.8 kips/ft. The properties of the materials are as follows: f’c=4000 psi, steel fy=60,000 psi. Calculate the long-term deflections in the beam after five years.

Answer:
Resistor B
Explanation:
Since resistance is the opposition to the flow of current in a circuit,
first let assume the two resistors are connected in parallel to the voltage, recall that when connection is in parallel, the different amount of current pass through the resistors depending on the value with the small resistor having a lower resistance effect hence higher current will pass through
The energy dissipated in each resistor can be calculated as
.
from the formula we can conclude that the energy value will be higher for the resistor with small resistance value. hence more heating effect which will cause it to be warm.
Also when connected individually the current flow from the voltage source will pass through the resistor which when we calculate the energy dissipated, the resistor with smaller value will be higher because it will draw more current which will in turn lead to a heating effect and cause the resistor to be warm. Hence we can conclude that the resistance B has greatest resistance value.
