The frequency of vibration depends on several factors with length being an important one. Stiffness and shape are some others.

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.


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.

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 can tuning fork sounds be made louder by standing them on an empty wooden box?

a wooden surface is better for a tuning fork rather than, say, a metal surface because the wood vibrates less than metal, and doesn't interfere with the vibrations of the fork. rubber is probably the best surface to hit a fork on.


Does a tuning fork vibrate because of resonance?

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.
