The shape of cantilever for uniformly distributed load will be

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option B
When a uniformly distributed load is applied to a cantilever beam, the shape of the deflected beam will form a parabolic curve. This is a common phenomenon observed in cantilever beams under such loading conditions.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option B: Parabolic, as the shape of a cantilever under a uniformly distributed load is parabolic in nature. This is a fundamental concept in the field of strength of materials in mechanical engineering.
