What fundamental characteristics of the sound produced by a tuning fork depends on its frequency?
The characteristics that determine the frequency with which a tuning fork will vibrate are the length and mass of the tines.
Why does the sound produced by the tuning fork die out when touched by hand?
The (sound - vibration) energy is absorbed by the flesh.
What can you get when you combine quartz sound magnets and a tuning fork?
A tuning fork combined with a quartz sound magnet.
What happens to the sound when you hit a tuning fork and put it in a cupboard?
The sound would be muted if a tuning fork is hit and then placed into a cupboard.
What has more harmonics in its sound a tuning fork or guitar?
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.

How waves are created and propagate when a tuning fork is struck?
Because of the tuning fork's vibrations. It creates compressional sound waves.
A tuning fork of frequency 300Hz will resonate if a sound wave incident on it has a frequency of what?
300Hz is the natural frequency of the tuning fork hence if a sound wave of same frequency hits the fork then RESONANCE occurs
How do you produce sounds?
sound produced through the vibrating object .
What vibrates between the tuning fork and the eardrum to carry the sound?
The air experiences a longitudinal pressure wave, which some might call a vibration, as it transmits sound from a tuning fork to the ear.
What does the sound travel through when the tuning fork is not touching the desk?
air
What does the amplitude of a sound wave determine in a tuning fork?
Loudness or volume.
When a tuning fork is pressed to your head where does the sound seem to come from?
temples
