Compute the volume of each spring and it's uncertainty using error propagation.

What is the formula for finding Volume of a spring? Not sure if any of these help but these are my data from my lab. I just don't know what the formula is, to put it to use. And if anyone can help with error propagation with the volume, that would help alot too.

The length is .1310m
spring diameter is .01425m
wire diameter is .00075m
coil # 165
mass is .02780kg

First Natural Frequency Formula
When springs are used in a moving mechanism, their dynamic behaviors have to be analyzed. For example, valve springs in an engine have their own natural frequencies. The designers must ensure that springs are operated well under their first natural frequency at maximum engine speed, or they risk damage to the pistons because the springs may not return the valves in time.

The first natural frequency of a helical spring is found to be,

where d is the wire diameter, D is the nominal coil diameter, nt is the total number of coils, G and r are the shear modulus and density of the spring material, respectively.

Derivation By Analogy

An easy way to derive the above equation is to draw an analogy between a rod and a spring. The analogy works because both objects are continuously distributed elements, in that their stiffness and mass are spread uniformly throughout their interiors.

Both the spring and the rod obey Hooke's Law when used in static applications,

where DL is the change in length of the spring or rod. The stiffness k for the rod is given by,

where E is the Youngs modulus of the material, and A and L are defined in the picture above.

The change in length of the rod for dynamic applications is given by,

where the wavenumber n is given by,

and f is the driving frequency (in Hz). To check that we have the right equation, we note 2 things: The dynamic equation for DL satisfies the governing partial differential equation for the rod, and DL becomes Hooke's Law in the static limit (f goes to zero),

To find the natural frequencies for the rod, we look at where the change in length of the rod blows up. This occurs when nL in the denominator equals one of the following: {p, 2p, 3p, ...}. The first natural frequency occurs when,

We solve for fres and substitute in krod and the volume of the rod (A*L),

We recognize that the density times the volume equals the mass of the rod. We can therefore simplify the resonant frequency formula to,

By analogy, the spring's first natural frequency will have the same equation,

where k is now the spring stiffness, and M is the spring mass (which can be found by weighing the spring).

Note that this equation is similar to that for a lumped spring-mass oscillator. However, the frequency here is a factor of p higher due to the distributed mass in the spring (and rod).
