low! :)


When did rpm Tuning happen?

RPM Tuning happened in 2004.


How are tuning forks used for hearing tests?

will vibrate at a set frequency to produce a musical tone when struck. The vibrations produced can be used to assess a person's ability to hear various sound frequencies.


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.

How waves are created and propagate when a tuning fork is struck?

Because of the tuning fork's vibrations. It creates compressional sound waves.

Two tuning forks struck at the same time one tuning fork has a frequency of 20 hz while the second tuning fork has a frequency of 226 hz how many beats will result?

Number of beats heard in one second will be got by the difference between the parent frequencies. Hope you have given wrong data for parent frequencies. The first one has to be 220 Hz and the other is 226 Hz. Hence 6 beats will be heard in one second. If you say 20 is the right one then difference will be 206. If 206 beats get produced in one second it will not be named as beat at all. Moreover our hearing could not recognize this as beating at all. So better correct the given data.


Why should tuning fork be struck gently and put over sonometer box gently?

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.
