The Forces Acting on the Cantilevered Beam (Figure 1

The forces acting on the cantilevered beam (Figure 1.5(a) in the text) create a moment on the beam, the bending moment (Mb) Which of the following statements regarding the calculation of bending moment on the beam are false?

A) For such a beam, the bending moment at any section (e.g. xs, xs) is equal to the force applied to the beam (F) multiplied by the distance of its point of application from that section (x)
B) The bending moment (M) will increase proportionally from zero at F to a value of FL at the base of the beam.
C) The bending moment (M) will increase proportionally from zero at FL to a value of F at the base of the beam.
D) The bending moment (M) will vary along the length of the beam.
