First select the all values!
Note: Notice the highest peak in the graph and note it as the natural frequency
Natural Frequency = 100 KHz
Step-6: Calculate the natural frequency as per the theoritical formula given below: Refer manual of experiment in reference tab Compare the calculated theoretical frequency with the frequency obtained through this experiment
