Which part of the tuning fork vibrates?
The tines.
How do you find the wavelength of a sound emitted by a tuning fork at 440 vibrations-second and the speed of sound is 332 m per s?
Wavelength = speed /frequency = 332/440 = 75.45 cm(rounded)
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 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.
Would the resonance positions be changed if a tuning fork of different frequency were used?
Yes, the resonance positions would change if a tuning fork of a different frequency were used. Resonance occurs when an object vibrates at its natural frequency, and each tuning fork has a specific frequency. Using a tuning fork with a different frequency would excite different modes of vibration in the system, resulting in a shift in the resonance positions. Thus, the specific frequencies at which resonance occurs would depend on the tuning fork used.
What kind of wave does a tuning fork create when it vibrates?
A tuning fork creates a sound wave when it vibrates.
Which part of the tuning fork vibrates?
The tines.
What type of waves are produced by a tuning fork vibrating in air?
The tuning fork produces sound waves when it vibrates in air.
What is a note pitch?
Pitch is the frequency at which an object vibrates to create a sound. A tuning fork, for example, that vibrates 440 times a second will produce a perfect "A" note. It is these predetermined levels of frequencies that pitch is categorized into the twelve chromatic musical tones.

How are sound waves generated in air by a tuning fork?
When a tuning fork is struck, it vibrates and creates compressions and rarefactions in the air, which travel as sound waves.
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 is a great example of a wave that tuning forks demonstrate?
One great example of a wave that tuning forks demonstrate is a sound wave. When a tuning fork is struck, it vibrates and produces sound waves that travel through the air. The frequency of the sound wave is determined by the rate of vibration of the tuning fork.
Why will a struck fork sound louder when it is held against a table?
it amplifies them because the table vibrates as well as the tuning fork
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.
How do you use tuning in a sentence?
This piano needs another tuning. I am tuning into my second-most favorite radio station now.
