It can, if there's another source of sound nearby, vibrating at the natural frequency
of the tuning fork.
Example:
Two Tuning Forks with the same natural frequency. The first one can be set vibrating
by whacking it against the edge of the table, whereupon the second one will vibrate
because it resonates with the first one.

∙ 14y agoya...the tuning fork was vibrating and different rating forks are available.eg:-512 vibrations/sec.
actually,the sound was produced due to the phenomenon known as RESONANCE.

What would be the energy transformations that occur when one tuning fork makes another tuning fork vibrate?
The some wave has the same frequency as the natural frequency of the tuning fork, the tuning fork is made to vibrate due to a process called resonance.
What is it called when you hit one tuning fork and you hold the other tuning fork up close to it and the both of the tuning forks vibrate?
harmonic resonance
If a tuning fork vibrates over an open pipe what causes vibrations in the air in the pipe?
Resonance
How do you know that a resonance has occurred between the tuning fork and the string?
If there is resonance, then making one vibrate will also make the other one vibrate in a noticeable way, since:* The vibrations are transmitted through the air, and * Any such small effect is reinforced, over time, due to resonance.
Why can a tuning fork or bell be set into resonance while tissue paper cannot?
The resonance occurs by the frequent vibrations from the two objects. Since hitting tissue paper which is not a very rigid object does not vibrate it does not resonate.

When a turning fork vibrates over an open pipe and the air in the pipe starts to vibrate the vibrations in the tube are caused by resonance?
When a tuning fork vibrates over an open pipe and the air in the pipe starts to vibrate, the vibrations in the tube are caused by resonance.
How can one tuning fork's vibrations cause another tuning fork to vibrate?
Vibrations are transferred from one to the other through the air. If the two have the same frequency (or a very similar frequency), resonance will occur.

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.
What will happen if a vibrating tuning fork is placed near another tuning fork of the same frequency?
Yes. It's an effect called 'resonance' - two identical things can vibrate in synch if the vibrations of one can someone pass to the other. The usually way of doing this is to stand them both on the same surface, so that the vibration can pass through that object.
What fundamental characteristics of the sound produced by a tuning fork depends on its frequency?
The characteristics that determine the frequency with which a tuning fork will vibrate are the length and mass of the tines.
When a tuning fork vibrates over an open pipe and the air in the pipe starts to vibrate the vibration the tube are caused by?
The vibrations are caused by resonance.beatsresonanceThe vibrations that are set up in the second fork are called sympathetic vibrations, and the two forks are said to be in resonance.
A tuning fork of frequency 300Hz will resonate if a sound wave incident on it has a frequency of what?
300Hz is the natural frequency of the tuning fork hence if a sound wave of same frequency hits the fork then RESONANCE occurs
