PLANNING AIM. INVESTIGATION OF THE STRUCTURE OF A CANTILEVER BEAM. APPARATUS LIST. 1. 3 Measuring rulers (1m each). 2. 10 Weights. (100g each) 3. 2 Wooden blocks. 4. Clamp. 5. Screw gauge with a sensitivity of 0.1mm 6. Vernia calapus with a sensitivity of 0.2mm VARIABLES INVOLVED. The variables that will be kept constant are the length of the overhang of the ruler, the position where the ruler is clamped and the position on the ruler where the weights are hung. The only variable that will change during the experiment is the amount of weight that is hung on one end of the ruler to measure the different deflection of the ruler at different heights. The weights that are hung on one end of the ruler will vary each time by adding 100g to the previous weight and read of the deflection of the ruler until it reaches 1kg. METHOD. Arrange the apparatus as shown in the above diagram....
