2. Plot a graph, which compare your experiment result to those your calculated using
theory.
*Refer to the graph

3. Comment on the shape of the graph. What does it tell you about how Shear Force varies
due to an increased load?
After the graph has been plot its show that value from experiment and theory obtain
graph line resultant is line linear.
From the decision graph, shear strength are directly proportional with load imposed.
This proves that when tax value is being imposed increase, shear strength producing
also is increasing.

4. Does the equation you used accurately predict the behavior of the beam?
Yes, from equation that we use it can explain the behavior of the beam.
Equation this proves that happened force shear beam.
From this equation also knowable that shear strength has happened at beam have
relation with load that imposed and distance at point load.
