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 is the uses of the tuning fork?

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.


What is the frequency fo radio waves in hertz?

From around 100kHz to around 500MHz. Below that, antennae need to be rather long to be efficient, above that the transmission range gets a bit short. But people have used much lower, and much higher frequencies, 40Hz - 20Gz and higher. The very high frequencies are often called microwave links.


Do radio waves have high energy?

Depends on the power being radiated and the size of the radiator (the ANTENNA size). If you push a megawatt out of a small antenna, prior to meltdown the wave energy will be very high. It you send 50 milliwatt out of a 60 inch disk, don't expect very high energy.


Does a tuning fork with short prongs have higher frequency than a tuning fork with long prongs?

Yes, a tuning fork with short prongs typically has a higher frequency than one with long prongs. This is because shorter prongs vibrate more rapidly, producing a higher pitch sound. In contrast, longer prongs vibrate at a lower frequency, resulting in a deeper pitch. Thus, the length of the prongs affects the frequency of the sound produced.

Do radios use high or low frequencies?

Radios can use a range of frequencies, but they typically operate in the range of high frequencies, which are better for long-distance communication. AM broadcasts, for example, use lower frequencies, while FM broadcasts use higher frequencies.


Does frequency reduces when the waves travel over long distance?

High frequencies are more damped by air than the bass frequencies.


How do wavelength and frequencies change as it move down?

As you move down the electromagnetic spectrum, the wavelength decreases and the frequency increases. This means that shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies, and vice versa. For example, radio waves have long wavelengths and low frequencies, while gamma rays have short wavelengths and high frequencies.


How long does it take to go from Gettysburg Pennsylvania to Forks Washington?

Why bother....There is nothing but trees in Forks.


Low and high pitched sounds?

Low-pitched sounds have lower frequencies, such as a bass guitar or a tuba, while high-pitched sounds have higher frequencies, such as a flute or a whistle. This difference in frequency gives each sound its distinct pitch perception.


Will a bent tuning peg make the string slip?

No, as long as the string is attached properly and the tuning peg itself doesn't slip.


Long and thick strings vibrate low and make a high pitch?

Actually, in general, longer and thicker strings vibrate at lower frequencies, resulting in lower pitches. Smaller and thinner strings vibrate at higher frequencies, producing higher pitches.


What type of frequency has long wavelengths?

Long wavelengths are associated with low frequencies. Examples include radio waves and AM radio signals, which have wavelengths in the range of kilometers to meters.


What are the effects on the human ear when exposed to hearing different frequencies?

Exposure to different frequencies can affect the human ear in various ways. High frequencies can cause hearing loss and damage to the delicate structures in the inner ear, while low frequencies can cause discomfort and distortion in hearing. It is important to protect your ears from prolonged exposure to loud sounds at any frequency to prevent long-term damage.


Why ground wave communication cannot be used for long distance using high frequency?

Frequencies over 30 Mhz normally travel through the ionosphere, whereas frequencies under 30 Mhz will normally bounce off the ionosphere, and back to earth.
