Gillian drives down Lake Avenue and observes an odd vibrational pattern of her car antenna. She observes it vibrating back and forth in the manner shown at the right. There is an antinode at its free end and a node at the location where the antenna mounts to the car. Vibrations travel through the 86 cm tall antenna at 5.0 x 103 m/s. Determine the frequency of vibrations of the antenna.

If left to freely oscillate, a system will vibrate at a natural frequency that depends on the system itself, not on the initial push or stimulus that we impart. Based on this reasoning, consider a beam made out of iron and an otherwise identical beam made out of aluminum. How should the natural frequency of vibration of these two beams compare? (Hint: look at the relative mass of these two elements on the periodic table and imagine that the atoms are connected by springs.)
