This transverse vibration mode is the fundamental
The frequency F is Y is the young modulus = 69Gpa for Al
 is the bulk density = 2700kg/m3 for Al
T is the thickness = 0.00635m 村
L is the length of the bar = 0.355 for C4

The ratios for the harmonics are:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Harmonic#
1 2.758 5.405 8.934 13.346 18.641 24.816 Ratio
The ratios of harmonics are not whole or rational numbers. Therefore, a solid bar will not
produce a harmonious sound.
