When a tuning fork vibrates will there be any overtones present ?

When a tuning fork (vibrating) is held close to ear, one hears a faint hum. The same (vibrating tuning fork) is held such that its stem is in contact with the table surface, then one hears a loud sound. Explain.

When a tuning fork vibrates with 1.0 m or 1.05 m long wire of a , 5 beats per second are produced in each case. If the frequency of the tuning fork is 5f (in Hz ) find f .

When a tuning fork is vibrated , another in the neighbourhood begins to vibrate . This is due to the phenomenon of

In the experiment for the determination of the speed of sound in air using the resonance column method, the length of the air column that resonates in the fundamental mode, with a tuning fork is 0.1m . When this length is changed to 0.35m , the same tuning fork resonates with the first overtone. Calculate the end correction.

A tuning fork vibrates with a frequency of 256. If the speed of sound is 345.6 ms^(-1) ., Find the wavelength and the distance, which the sound travels during the time, the fork makes 60 vibrations.

When block hangs in air, the horizontal string vibrates in its tenth harmonic in unison with a particular tuning fork. When block is placed in elevator acceleration in downward direction, the same string vibrates in its eleventh harmonic with same tuning fork. What will be acceleration of elevator ?

Two tuning forks vibrate with the same amplitude but the frequency of the first is double the frequency of the second. Which fork produces more intense sound in air ?

A tuning fork is in resonance with a vibrating string under tension. When the tuning fork is moved with a certain velocity, 2 beats per second are heard. If the tension is increased, the beats disappear again. The direction of motion of the tuning fork is

A tuning fork vibrates at 264 Hz . Find the length of the shortest closed organ pipe that will resonate with the tuning fork. Speed of sound in air is 350ms^-1 .
