Question

A tuning fork is struck on a rubber pad and the stem of the tuning fork is touched to a table surface. the table surface starts vibrating. what is difference in the vibrations of the tuning fork and the vibration of the table ​

Answer 1

Given:

A tuning fork is struck on a rubber pad and the stem of the tuning fork is touched to a table surface, the table surface starts vibrating.

To Find:

What is difference in the vibrations of the tuning fork and the vibration of the table?

Solution:

Since, we know that vibration occur in the tuning fork is known as resonance, as it occurs when the natural frequency of medium is equal to the forced frequency of the tuning fork.

here, it is given that - a tuning fork is struck on a rubber pad and the stem of the tuning fork is touched to a table surface, the table surface starts vibrating.

therefore, according to question here; vibration of the table is known as forced vibration and vibration of tuning fork is known as resonance.

Hence, difference in vibration of the tuning fork and the vibration of the table is the Resonance which is produced by vibration of tuning fork not by table.

Answer 2

Answer:An instrument used in Labs.

Explanation:

Tuning fork is an instrument used to produce sound in fixed frequency in laboratories.
