NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 11
A beam with a commonly used cross-section shape for load-bearing is designed to provide a large load-bearing surface and enough depth to prevent bending. Which of the following is a primary advantage of this shape?
A
It reduces the weight of the beam without sacrificing strength.
B
It increases the surface area for more load distribution.
C
It ensures uniform stress distribution across the beam.
D
It allows for greater flexibility in the beam structure.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The commonly used cross-section shape for a load-bearing beam reduces the weight without sacrificing strength, as it provides a large load-bearing surface and enough depth to prevent bending.
