A boomed section has booms of \( 500 \) mm\( ^2 \) at \( \pm 150 \) mm and \( 500 \) mm\( ^2 \) on the neutral axis. The neutral-axis boom's contribution to the shear flow step is

  • A.Equal to that of the others
  • B.Twice that of the others
  • C.Zero
  • D.Half that of the others

Answer: C

The step is proportional to the boom's first moment about the neutral axis, and a boom lying on that axis has a zero first moment. It contributes nothing to the shear flow, though it still adds area and so affects the centroid position.
