What happens to the sound when you hit a tuning fork and put it in a cupboard?

Oh, dude, when you hit a tuning fork and put it in a cupboard, the sound waves produced by the tuning fork will bounce around the enclosed space of the cupboard, creating a reverberation effect. This can make the sound seem louder and last longer due to the sound waves reflecting off the walls of the cupboard. So, like, it's basically like giving the sound a little echo chamber to hang out in for a bit.


Why tuning fork has frequency 128 256 512 etc?

Because they're designed that way. A tuning fork can be, well, "tuned" to have any desired frequency. If these are for tuning musical instruments, they sound like very old tuning forks. The "middle C = 256 Hz" scale was in limited use at one time, but by modern standards (where the A above middle C is tuned to 440 Hz, or in some cases even higher) is a bit on the low side. Tuning your instrument to C=256Hz will make it sound "flat".

How to tune a guitar by ear?

To tune a guitar by ear, start by tuning the low E string to a reference pitch, like a piano or tuning fork. Then, tune the other strings by fretting the 5th fret of the low E string and matching it to the open A string, and so on for the rest of the strings. Use your ears to listen for when the pitches match.
