Temperature, Frequency, and Young’s Modulus of a Ching

by Nicholas Jankovic

Abstract

The frequency and Young’s modulus of a Thai ching were studied at temperatures ranging from -20˚C to 47˚C. It was found that both of these values decreased with temperature. This study also demonstrates the validity of a method of determining the Young’s modulus of a material using a percussion instrument.
