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

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. : If a tuning fork has a frequency of 546 Hz, then how many times will it vibrate in a second?

Answer the following based on the graph given below. What is the frequency of AC and DC?

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 ?

A light pointer fixed to one prong of a tuning fork touches a vertical plate. The fork is set vibrating and the plate is allowed to fall freely. If eight oscillations are counted when the plate falls through 10 cm, the frequency of the tuning fork is

Answer the following What is the relation between frequency and time period of a sound wave?

A tuning fork gives 4 beats per second with a sonometer wire under tension of 26 N. If the tension on the wire is decreased to 24 N the number of beats remains the same before. What is the frequency of the tuning fork?
