This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Static Deflection - (Measured in Meter) - Static deflection is the extension or compression of the constraint.
Load per unit length - Load per unit length is the distributed load which is spread over a surface or line.
Length of beam - (Measured in Meter) - Length of beam between inflection points.
Young's Modulus - (Measured in Newton per Meter) - Young's Modulus is a mechanical property of linear elastic solid substances. It describes the relationship between longitudinal stress and longitudinal strain.
Moment of Inertia of Beam - (Measured in Meter⁴ per Meter) - Moment of Inertia of Beam is a quantitative measure of the rotational inertia of a body.

Static Deflection for Fixed Beam with Uniformly Distributed Point Load Formula

Static Deflection = (Load per unit length*Length of beam^4)/(384*Young's Modulus*Moment of Inertia of Beam)
δ = (w*L^4)/(384*E*I)

What is the difference between bending and deflection?

With "bending" you really mean the bending moment. The bending moment in an inner stress within a member (usually beam) that allows it to carry a load. Deflection measures the actual change in a material you could call "bending." It measures the physical displacement of a member under a load.
