Questions based on paragraph : Sound is propagated in a material medium in the form of compression and rarefactions. One compression and one rarefaction together form one cycle of the sound wave. The number of cycles produced per second is called as frequency. A tuning fork is a two-pronged device which vibrates to produce sound when struck. The frequency of a tuning fork is decided by the dimensions of the prong and the material used for making the fork. When these sound waves reach ears of listener, his ear-drum vibrates. Accordingly specific signals are conveyed to the brain and the listener gets a sense of hearing sound. : Will two tuning forks of same dimensions but different material produce same type of sound when struck with the same force?

A tuning fork produces waves in a medium. If the temperature of the medium changes, then which of the following will change?

Answer the following : On what factors is the frequency of a tuning fork decided?

Nine tuning forks are arranged in order of increasing frequency . Each tuning fork produces 4 beats per second when sounded with either of its neighbours. If the frequency of the 9th tuning fork is twice that of the first, what is the frequency of the first tuning fork ?

When a tuning fork A and B are sounded together,the number of beats heard are 4 per second.When tuning fork A is field,the number of beats heard per second with B is changed to 3.If the frequency of tuning fork B is 384 Hz,the original frequency of A is
