A simply supported beam PQ is loaded by a moment of 1 kN-m at the mid-span of the beam as
shown in the figure.The reaction forces $R_{p}$ and$R_{q}$ at supports P and Q respectively are
(a) 1 kN downward, 1 kN upward
(b) 0.5 kN upward, 0.5 kN downward
(c) 0.5kN downward, 0.5 kN upward
(d) 1kN downward, 1 kN downward
