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.

Does a tuning fork have more harmonics or does a guitar?
Guitar. Tuning forks are a sine wave
What can you get when you combine quartz sound magnets and a tuning fork?
A tuning fork combined with a quartz sound magnet.
Why does a note a natural sound different on a tree for a violin and the flute?
The note A-natural sounds different on a tuning fork, a violin, and a flute because of the relative amplitudes of harmonics.
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.
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

Guitar. Tuning forks are a sine wave
Does a guatar have more hermonics than a tuning fork?
A tuning fork produces a sine wave and therefore has no harmonics so by default, yes.

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
What does the tuning fork do to produce a sound wave in the air?
Most tuning forks are designed to resonate at 440 hertz when struck. That is the frequency of the A before middle C on a keyboard or the A string on a guitar, violin, etc. You just strike the tuning fork then adjust the tension on your A string until the string vibrates at the same frequency as the tuning fork. Then you tune the rest of your strings from the A string.
Due to what the vibration of a tuning fork can cause a guitar string to vibrate when the fork is held near the string?

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.
