Tuning Fork – Precision Instrument for Sound and Vibration Experiments
The Tuning Fork is a simple yet highly accurate instrument widely used in physics and sound experiments to demonstrate the principles of vibration and resonance. It consists of a U-shaped metal bar that produces a fixed tone when struck. Designed with precision and balance, tuning forks are essential tools in educational laboratories, physics classrooms, and acoustic research setups.
Working Principle
When the Tuning Fork is struck against a rubber pad or a soft surface, its prongs begin to vibrate, producing a sound of a definite frequency. This frequency depends on the length and material of the fork. The vibrations can be used to study concepts such as resonance, frequency, amplitude, and wave propagation.
Applications
- Used in school and college laboratories for sound experiments.
- Ideal for demonstrating resonance and interference in physics practicals.
- Employed in medical and hearing tests for checking auditory response.
- Used in engineering and acoustic research for frequency calibration.
Features
- Made from high-quality steel or aluminum alloy for accurate frequency generation.
- Available in multiple frequencies such as 256 Hz, 320 Hz, 512 Hz, and 1024 Hz.
- Lightweight, durable, and rust-resistant construction.
- Optional wooden or metal resonance box for enhanced sound clarity.
