Calculate the angular frequency for small oscilations.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I hate Newton to solve SHM problems where weight is acting so I opted for energy but I cannot find out what's the gravitationall energy:
[tex] \displaystyle E=\frac{1}{2}I{{\omega }^{2}}+\frac{1}{2}M{{v}^{2}}+Mgh[/tex]
[tex] \displaystyle E=\frac{7}{4}M{{{\dot{x}}}^{2}}+Mgh[/tex]
Plz helP! Thanks!
