Question
An overhead crane can be modelled as the beam system shown in Figure Q3. The beam of length L = 2.6 m is made of steel with Young's modulus, E = 202.4 x 10⁹ N/m². The second
moment of area of the beam 1 = 3.7 x 10-4 m4. The stiffness of the spring, k₁ = 6.2 x 10³ N/m. The mass due to the load being lifted, m₁ = 3.4 x 10² kg. The beam mass is negligible
compared with the load.
You are required to find the equivalent stiffness of the beam, and then as your answer, to find the natural frequency of the system in Hz. Fill this answer in the box below. (Express
your answer to 2dp)
