Answer 1

Question :-

Explain, How sound is being produced by the tuning Fork.

Answer:-

• The geometry of the tuning fork is designed so that its natural (resonant) frequency corresponds to the desired sound. Natural frequency is the frequency that an object vibrates at when displaced by an external force, e.g., striking a tuning fork. So, the tuning fork is simply vibrating at its natural frequency.
• An interesting experiment is to place two tuning forks, with the same natural frequency, side by side. Strike one of the tuning forks, and the other tuning fork will begin to resonate at the same frequency. All musical instruments rely on natural frequency to produce sound. Examples include: guitar strings, piano strings, reed in wood winds, the head on drums, and human vocal cords.

Check the above given Attachment and below paragraph for More Information on this topic.

When the tuning fork is hit with a rubber hammer, the tines begin to vibrate. The back and forth vibration of the tines produce disturbances of surrounding air molecules. ... It is noticed that the string starts vibrating and simultaneously a sound is heard.
