Under the assumption that the beam is a rectangular cantilever beam that is free to vibrate, the theoretical first natural frequency of the beam in terms of the length, L, width, b, thickness, h, density, p, and Young's Modulus, E, in Hertz is given by:

fn= h/2πL^2 √E/rho

The density of steel used in the beam is 7800 kg/m^3, and its Young's Modulus is 210 GPa. You measure the dimensions of the clamped steel beam with a set of calipers and gather the following data:

L = 233.5 mm, b = 24.9 mm, h = 3.3 mm

The calipers used to measure the dimensions of beam have a resolution of 0.01 mm and therefore have an uncertainty of +0.005 mm.

Required:
a. What is the uncertainty of the natural frequency (in Hz) due to the uncertainty of the length measurement?
b. What is the uncertainty of the natural frequency (in Hz) due to the uncertainty of the width measurement?
c. What is the uncertainty of the natural frequency (in Hz) due to the uncertainty of the thickness measurement?
d. What is the total uncertainty of the natural frequency due to the beam measurements (in Hz)?

Answer:

a) Δf = 0.7 n , e)   f = (15.1 ± 0.7) 10³ Hz

Explanation:

This is an error about the uncertainty or error in the calculated quantities.

Let's work all the magnitudes is the SI system

The frequency of oscillation is

        f = n / 2π L² √( E /ρ)

where n is an integer

Let's calculate the magnitude of the oscillation

       f = n / 2π (0.2335)² √ (210 10⁹/7800)

       f = n /0.34257 √ (26.923 10⁶)

       f = n /0.34257    5.1887 10³

       f = 15.1464 10³ n

a) We are asked for the uncertainty of the frequency (Df)

       Δf = | df / dL | ΔL + df /dE ΔE + df /dρ Δρ

in this case no  error is indicated in Young's modulus and density, so we will consider them exact

       ΔE = Δρ = 0

       Δf = df /dL  ΔL

       df = n / 2π   √E /ρ   | -2 / L³ | ΔL

       df = n / 2π 5.1887 10³ | 2 / 0.2335³) 0.005 10⁻³

       df = n 0.649

Absolute deviations must be given with a single significant figure

        Δf = 0.7 n

b, c) The uncertainty with the width and thickness of the canteliver is associated with the density

 

In your expression there is no specific dependency so the uncertainty should be zero

The exact equation for the natural nodes is

          f = n / 2π L² √ (E e /ρA)

where A is the area of ​​the cantilever and its thickness,

In this case, they must perform the derivatives, calculate and approximate a significant figure

        Δf = | df / dL | ΔL + df /de  Δe + df /dA  ΔA

        Δf = 0.7 n + n 2π L² √(E/ρ A) | ½  1/√e | Δe

               + n / 2π L² √(Ee /ρ) | 3/2 1√A23  |

the area is

        A = b h

        A = 24.9  3.3  10⁻⁶

        A = 82.17 10⁻⁶ m²

        DA = dA /db ΔB + dA /dh Δh

        dA = h Δb + b Δh

        dA = 3.3 10⁻³ 0.005 10⁻³ + 24.9 10⁻³ 0.005 10⁻³

        dA = (3.3 + 24.9) 0.005 10⁻⁶

        dA = 1.4 10⁻⁷ m²

let's calculate each term

         A ’= n / 2π L² √a (E/ρ A) | ½ 1 /√ e | Δe

         A ’= n/ 2π L² √ (E /ρ)      | ½ 1 / (√e/√ A) |Δe

        A ’= 15.1464 10³ n ½ 1 / [√ (24.9 10⁻³)/ √ (81.17 10⁻⁶)] 0.005 10⁻³

        A '= 0.0266  n

        A ’= 2.66 10⁻² n

       A ’’ = n / 2π L² √ (E e /ρ) | 3/2  1 /√A³ |

       A ’’ = n / 2π L² √(E /ρ) √ e | 3/2  1 /√ A³ | ΔA

       A ’’ = n 15.1464 10³ 3/2 √ (24.9 10⁻³) /√ (82.17 10⁻⁶) 3 1.4 10⁻⁷

       A ’’ = n 15.1464 1.5 1.5779 / 744.85 1.4 10⁴

       A ’’ = 6,738 10²

we write the equation of uncertainty

     Δf = n (0.649 + 2.66 10⁻² + 6.738 10²)

The uncertainty due to thickness is

    Δf = 3 10⁻² n

The uncertainty regarding the area, note that this magnitude should be measured with much greater precision, specifically the height since the errors of the width are very small

     Δf = 7 10² n

 d)    Δf = 7 10² n

e) the natural frequency n = 1

       f = (15.1 ± 0.7) 10³ Hz
