A cantilever beam -spring system is shown in the figure. The beam is made with a material of
Young's modulus 1105 N/mm 2 and geometry such that its moment of inertia is 100 mm 4 and
length l = 100 mm. It is supported by a spring of stiffness K = 30 N/mm and subjected to a load of
P = 100 N at the point 'B'. The deflection at the point 'B' due to the load P is ____mm.
