What is an electrically maintained tuning fork and explain its working?
It is a tuning fork whose vibrations are sustained (by hammering it continuously in a way similar to the break and make arrangement of electric bell) with the help of an electromagnet.
Why can't you see the vibrations on the tuning fork?
You can it's just that they are very small
How could you produce vibrations in a tuning fork without touching it explain?
Idek
If a tuning fork vibrates over an open pipe what causes vibrations in the air in the pipe?
Resonance
What is the relationship between the number on the tuning fork and the pitch of the tuning fork?
In a simplistic way, pitches are nothing more than vibrations in the air. These vibrations happen at certain frequencies (the number of vibrations per second, measured in Hertz). The more vibrations per second the higher we perceive that pitch to be. A440 is now the tuning standard - that means that that A, in the middle of the treble staff, vibrates 440 times per second, or at 440 Hz. A note an octave higher would vibrate at 880 Hz and an octave lower vibrates at 220 Hz. Most tuning forks are pitched at A440, but you can get other notes (and even other temperaments). Those other notes vibrate at different frequencies, so the number on the tuning fork correspond to the numbers of vibrations-per-second that tuning fork makes.

What are free vibrations?
A tuning fork struck result in free vibrations.
What device makes vibrations?
A tuning fork .
How are amplitude of vibrations generated?
by the cycle of a tuning fork.
How waves are created and propagate when a tuning fork is struck?
Because of the tuning fork's vibrations. It creates compressional sound waves.
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.

How does a guitar get automatically not tuned?
Temperature changes and vibrations can cause strings to change in length or tuning pegs to move.
When a tuning fork vibrates over an open pipe and the air in the pipe starts to vibrate the vibration the tube are caused by?
The vibrations are caused by resonance.beatsresonanceThe vibrations that are set up in the second fork are called sympathetic vibrations, and the two forks are said to be in resonance.
