9. A beam of solid rectangular cross-section is simply supported at its ends. A concentrated load of 82 kN applied at its centre results in a maximum bending moment of 72 kNm and a maximum stress of 56 MN/m². The breadth of the beam section is 100 mm. Calculate the length and depth of the beam. (The beam's own weight may be disregarded.)
