Answer

$$ \omega_n=3.45 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{s} $$

Work Step by Step

$T_O$ is the equilibrium force. $$ T_O=\frac{6(3)}{2}=9 \mathrm{lb} $$ Thus, for small $\theta$ $$ ↻+\Sigma M_O=I_O \alpha ; \quad 6(3)-[9+5(2) \theta](2)=\left(\frac{6}{32.2}\right)(3 \ddot{\theta})(3) $$ Thus $$ \begin{aligned} & \ddot{\theta}+11.926 \theta=0 \\ & \omega_n=\sqrt{11.926}=3.45 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{s} \end{aligned} $$
