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 is the Weber test?
the Weber test. For this test, the stem or handle of the vibrating tuning fork is placed at various points along the midline of the skull and face.
How does a guitar tone knob work?
I am going to give you the simple answer. There are 2 parts to a tone knob, a potentiometer(pot) and a capacitor(cap). The pot is used in the volume and the tone knobs. In the tone pot a cap is placed from the input lead of the pot and ground. All sounds have amplitude(volume) and frequency(makes the sound change from treble to bass). When the two are combined you have a device that will change the frequency of the sound. As you turn the pot it's resistance will change and since it is tied to a cap the change is in frequency.

Why should tuning fork be struck gently and put over sonometer box gently?
Tuning forks should be struck gently and put over sonometer boxes gently due to the fragile nature of the tuning fork and the sonometer box. The tuning fork is a metal rod with two prongs that vibrate at a specific frequency when struck. This vibration can be damaged or distorted if the tuning fork is struck too hard. Similarly, the sonometer box is a box filled with metal strings or wires, and if the tuning fork is placed too hard or too quickly, the metal strings can be damaged or distorted. Gently striking and placing the tuning fork over the sonometer box is also important for accurate results. If the tuning fork is struck too hard, the frequency of the resulting vibration will be higher than desired, and if the tuning fork is placed too hard or too quickly onto the sonometer box, the vibrations will be distorted and the resulting frequency will not be accurate. In conclusion, tuning forks should be struck and placed over sonometer boxes gently in order to protect the fragile nature of both the tuning fork and the sonometer box, as well as to ensure accurate results.
Where is the Time Signature placed?
The time signature is placed on the staff between the clef and the key signature.
What is the harmonic series?
The harmonic series is a sequence of notes and frequencies. These notes occurr naturally, even resonating in natural cave formations and cathedrals. It has to do with the natural fractions of a frequency. Imagine a string vibrating. It creates a kind of elongated "jump rope" shape. Now imagine that we have placed a weight in that jumprope so that it is held down perfectly in half causing each side to rotate separately but in unison. This devision causes the note to jump up an octave on a stringed instrument. When you continue to make these devisions in the jump rope, (halfs, thirds quarters fifths, etc) the notes will sound in a specific series, starting with the first note (or open string), then a perfect octave above that, then a perfect fifth above that, then a perfect fourth, Major Third, Minor Third etc. The issue of the harmonic series is a complicated one because as one progresses up the natural order of fractions, the notes become imperfect or out of tune with one another. This is why today we have a tempered tuning system for our pianos instead of a harmonic series tuning system! There u go
What is the appropriate age for a baby to be in a swing or vibrating seat?
Infants from new born to 20lbs can be placed in infant swings, papasan swings and vibrating bouncy seats as long as they are belted in and under supervision.
What consolidating concrete?
Newly placed concrete will often have air pockets in it. Rodding it or vibrating it will cause the concrete to settle, or consolidate, better.
