The low-pitched tuning fork (C128) is used to test sensation of vibration. Higher pitched tuning forks are used in neurological examinations.
sympathetic vibration
The air experiences a longitudinal pressure wave, which some might call a vibration, as it transmits sound from a tuning fork to the ear.
That would cause a forced vibration; the tuning fork will make the table vibrate, or part of it, and thus, there is more surface to make the air vibrate.That would cause a forced vibration; the tuning fork will make the table vibrate, or part of it, and thus, there is more surface to make the air vibrate.That would cause a forced vibration; the tuning fork will make the table vibrate, or part of it, and thus, there is more surface to make the air vibrate.That would cause a forced vibration; the tuning fork will make the table vibrate, or part of it, and thus, there is more surface to make the air vibrate.
The (sound - vibration) energy is absorbed by the flesh.

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.

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.
Tuning forks should be struck gently and put over sonometer boxes gently due to the fragile nature of the tuning fork and the sonometer box. The tuning fork is a metal rod with two prongs that vibrate at a specific frequency when struck. This vibration can be damaged or distorted if the tuning fork is struck too hard. Similarly, the sonometer box is a box filled with metal strings or wires, and if the tuning fork is placed too hard or too quickly, the metal strings can be damaged or distorted. Gently striking and placing the tuning fork over the sonometer box is also important for accurate results. If the tuning fork is struck too hard, the frequency of the resulting vibration will be higher than desired, and if the tuning fork is placed too hard or too quickly onto the sonometer box, the vibrations will be distorted and the resulting frequency will not be accurate. In conclusion, tuning forks should be struck and placed over sonometer boxes gently in order to protect the fragile nature of both the tuning fork and the sonometer box, as well as to ensure accurate results.
