You’re working for the summer with an ornithologist who knows you’ve studied physics. She asks you for a noninvasive way to measure birds’ masses. You propose using a bird feeder in the shape of a 50-cm-diameter uniform disk of mass 340 g, suspended by a wire with torsional constant 5.00 Nm/rad(see Figure below). Two birds land on opposite sides and the feeder goes into torsional oscillation at 2.6 Hz. Assuming the birds have the same mass, what is it?

Mechanical Properties of Solids

There are three types of matter- solid, liquid and gas. Out of them, solids have a rigid shaped and size. The intermolecular forces of attractions in solids are greatest. Mechanical properties are the physical properties of a material which it shows, when it is provided with certain amount of force or load. These properties are to be kept in mind for various purposes. When a force is applied to an object, the object may or may not get deformed depending upon its elastic property. But every time the object develops a restoring force against the force applied. This is commonly known as stress. If the object changes its dimensions due to the force applied it develops strain ( which is the ratio of change in dimension to the original dimension).
