to asses persons hearing ability specially air conduction versus bone conduction
A tuning fork used to be the standard method for checking the musical pitch of instruments. When struck it would vibrate at a definite frequency, which could be heard, and Musical Instruments could then be adjusted to match. Nowadays that is more usually done by electronic oscillators.

How do you produce a note from a tuning fork?
a tuning fork is made by.....use of a specific frequency.................. tht may match the frquency of.........a boy or a girl......
What has more harmonics in its sound a tuning fork or guitar?
A guitar is a far more complex structure than a tuning fork, and has more harmonics. The whole design of a tuning fork is intended to give as simple and pure a sound as possible, since that is the easiest type of sound to use when you are trying to tune an instrument. You wouldn't want harmonics in a tuning fork.
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 a tuning fork and how is it used?
tuning fork steel instrument in the shape of a U with a short handle. When struck it produces an almost pure tone, retaining its pitch over a long period of time; thus it is a valuable aid in tuning musical instruments.
What can you get when you combine quartz sound magnets and a tuning fork?
A tuning fork combined with a quartz sound magnet.
What kind of wave does a tuning fork create when it vibrates?
A tuning fork creates a sound wave when it vibrates.
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
Why does the frequency of a tuning fork remains constant?
The frequency of a tuning fork remains constant because it is determined by the physical properties of the fork, specifically its material, shape, and size. When struck, the tuning fork vibrates at its natural frequency, which is a fixed characteristic based on these properties. Since the fork's structure does not change during typical use, the frequency of the sound waves it produces remains stable. This makes tuning forks reliable tools for pitch reference in musical contexts.
How did the tuning fork get its name?
It's purely descriptive: the item is fork-shaped and is used when tuning musical instruments.
When a tuning fork and a note are sounded together why do you loosen the string?
The purpose of a tuning fork is to know the exact pitch of a certain note, and then tune to that note. The string is probably loosened to match the pitch of the tuning fork.
