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.
What else can I help you with?
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.

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.
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?
Resonance occurs when the natural frequency of an object matches the frequency of external vibrations, causing it to vibrate at maximum amplitude. In this case, when the tuning fork vibrates over the open pipe, the air inside the pipe starts to vibrate at a frequency that matches the natural frequency of the pipe, leading to resonance and amplifying the sound produced.

What is the frequency formula used to calculate the resonance frequency of a tuning fork?
The frequency formula used to calculate the resonance frequency of a tuning fork is f (1/2) (Tension / (Mass per unit length Length)), where f is the resonance frequency, Tension is the tension in the tuning fork, Mass per unit length is the mass per unit length of the tuning fork, and Length is the length of the tuning fork.
What are some examples of objects that demonstrate resonance, and why are tuning forks a great example of this?
Objects that demonstrate resonance include musical instruments like guitars and pianos, as well as everyday items like glass cups and metal rods. Tuning forks are a great example of resonance because when struck, they vibrate at a specific frequency that creates a pure tone. This vibration causes the air around the tuning fork to vibrate at the same frequency, producing a sound that is loud and clear, showcasing the concept of resonance in a simple and easily observable way.
How does the tuning fork vibration affect the resonance of musical instruments?
When a tuning fork vibrates near a musical instrument, it can cause the instrument to resonate at the same frequency as the tuning fork. This resonance amplifies the sound produced by the instrument, making it sound louder and clearer.
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.
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.
