Procedure e
1. Fix one end of the caantilever firm
mly over a table edge with the help of a clamp.
n vertical position near thee free end of tthe cantileverr and note the reading of
2. Place a meter rod in
unloaded cantilever.
3. Hang a weight of 20 gm near the free end and d note the reaading from meter rod.
4. Repeat with weightss of 40 gm, 60 0 gm, 80 gm aand 100 gms.
5. Find the depression for each weigght and plot aa graph betw ween depression and load aas shown in FFig. l
(b).
6. Record the tine period for 20 vibrations of canntilever with aa weight of 100_gm with tthe help of a stop
watch.
7. Record two more reeadings with ssame weight aand find the m mean time peeriod or 20 vibrations.
