@Harika.

It's for simply supported beam.

No, You are wrong @Harika.

BM at the fixed end will be wl'/2. And at free end, there won't be any forces.

Harika said:   6 years ago
It should be wl/2 because here it asked shear force.

If it's asks bending moment at the fixed end, it will be zero.

Zero at the free end.
