if u hit it on a wooden desk (like a classroom desk) it will vibrate and you can see and feel the vibration of a tuning fork like that. If u touch it ur finger/hands will keep it from vibrating .
ur welcum 4 telling u d answer! "peace!"
Strike one of the prongs on a hard surface, or rest the base of it on something that's already vibrating.

a tuning fork is made by.....use of a specific frequency.................. tht may match the frquency of.........a boy or a girl......
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.
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.
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.
I can say tuning fork.

A tuning fork combined with a quartz sound magnet.
harmonic resonance
It's purely descriptive: the item is fork-shaped and is used when tuning musical instruments.
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.
You can purchase a tuning fork on E-bay or any store/shop that sales musical instruments; such as pianos!
Because of the tuning fork's vibrations. It creates compressional sound waves.
