A small mass 'm' is suspended at the end of a wire having (negligible mass) length 'L' and cross-sectional area 'A'. The frequency of oscillation for the S.H.M. along the vertical line is $(\mathrm{Y}=$ Young's modulus of the wire)
If $x$ is the extension of the wire then
$P=\left(\frac{Y A}{L}\right) x \quad F=k x \quad \text { where } k=\frac{Y A}{L}$
frequency of oscillation is given by
$f=\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}=\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{Y A}{m L}}$
