Question

What are the three equations of flexural rigidity?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Flexural Rigidity 

It defined as the resistance offered by structure while undergoing bending or it is the product of young modulus of elasticity and second moment of inertia  

Flexural rigidity = EI

Its unit is Pa-m4 or N-m2 

where E is the young modulud of elasticity (Pa)

I is the second moment of inertia (m4)
