Why does a struck tuning fork sound louder when its handle is held against the table?
That would cause a forced vibration; the tuning fork will make the table vibrate, or part of it, and thus, there is more surface to make the air vibrate.That would cause a forced vibration; the tuning fork will make the table vibrate, or part of it, and thus, there is more surface to make the air vibrate.That would cause a forced vibration; the tuning fork will make the table vibrate, or part of it, and thus, there is more surface to make the air vibrate.That would cause a forced vibration; the tuning fork will make the table vibrate, or part of it, and thus, there is more surface to make the air vibrate.

Why tuning fork has frequency 128 256 512 etc?
Because they're designed that way. A tuning fork can be, well, "tuned" to have any desired frequency. If these are for tuning musical instruments, they sound like very old tuning forks. The "middle C = 256 Hz" scale was in limited use at one time, but by modern standards (where the A above middle C is tuned to 440 Hz, or in some cases even higher) is a bit on the low side. Tuning your instrument to C=256Hz will make it sound "flat".

What does one have to adjust to tune a guitar?
When adjusting the tune of the strings on a guitar, one will need to mainly focus on achieving the correct pitch by adjusting the knobs on the headstock for each string. The pitch of every string will be in tune with the frequency of an A440 fork of tuning. Only the A string will be in tune with the frequency of a tuning fork at concert / 440 pitch. All other strings are tuned relative to the A string. Turn the tuning keys to adjust the string. tightening the string will adjust the note higher loosening the string will make the note lower.
Why do the rockers make noise?
Because the gap between the rocker and the valve is too big and what you hear is the rocker slapping the valve stem. Get yourself a manual for your car and find the valve gap so you can adjust them properly.
What 3 ways can you change pitch?
Replace the nitrogen & oxygen air with helium and oxygen. tighten the tension on the vibrating thing (e.g., string) make the vibrating thing smaller, thinner. (e.g., tuning fork)
