A small cantilever beam is rigidly installed on the surface of a vibrating object, as presented in the figure below. This small cantilever beam has a length of 100 mm 0.5 mm. The beam is a 1.75 mm 0.3 mm radius steel rod with a density of 8000 kg/m and its Young's modulus of elasticity is 200 GPa. What is the lowest nominal vibration frequency that will result in a resonance and how much uncertainty in this frequency is there given the beam dimensional uncertainties. Remember, nominal' means that result you would get without uncertainties. Vibration HINT: The radius uncertainty will affect not only the moment I but also the mass per unit length m.
