Beats can be heard when two tuning forks?
Almost the same frequency and are sounded together.
What fundamental characteristics of the sound produced by a tuning fork depends on its frequency?
The characteristics that determine the frequency with which a tuning fork will vibrate are the length and mass of the tines.
When a tuning fork and a note are sounded together why do you loosen the string?
The purpose of a tuning fork is to know the exact pitch of a certain note, and then tune to that note. The string is probably loosened to match the pitch of the tuning fork.
What beat frequency is produced by two tuning forks that vibrate simultaneously withe frequencies?
3.0 HZ
A tuning fork of frequency 300Hz will resonate if a sound wave incident on it has a frequency of what?
300Hz is the natural frequency of the tuning fork hence if a sound wave of same frequency hits the fork then RESONANCE occurs

How are beats useful in tuning musical instruments?
By tuning musical instrument we mean that to produce a note of Desired frequency. Take a standard musical instrument of well defined frequency. The new musical instrument and the standard instrument are sounded together. Initially we will hear mixed sound due to slightly frequency difference between them. The frequency of the musical instrument is gradually adjusted till we will hear same sound. When this happens, the musical instrument Will produce the note of desired frequency and is said to be turned. In this way, beats become useful in tuning a musical instrument.

300Hz is the natural frequency of the tuning fork hence if a sound wave of same frequency hits the fork then RESONANCE occurs
Two tuning forks are struck at the same timeone tuning fork has a frequency of 20 hz while the second tuning fork has a frequency of 226 hz how many beats will result?
11.3 beats
What would be the energy transformations that occur when one tuning fork makes another tuning fork vibrate?
The some wave has the same frequency as the natural frequency of the tuning fork, the tuning fork is made to vibrate due to a process called resonance.
Which diode is used in frequency tuning application?
The varactor diode is used in frequency tuning applications. Its effective capacitance is a function of the reverse bias voltage across it.
What is the effect of temperature on frequency of tuning fork?
The effect of temperature on the frequency of a tuning fork is slight, for the length of the tines is little changed. A steel tuning fork would not be used as a precision frequency reference, though quite adequate for audio purposes. As the temperature increases, the lines will lengthen, and the frequency will decrease.
A tuning fork of frequency 256Hz is vibrating near another tuning fork A beat pattern of frequency 6.6Hz is produced What can you say about the frequency of the second tuning fork?
Sounding two tuning forks at once will not give you one frequency. The "sound" that you hear will be a harmonic combination of the two frequencies. However because of acoustics the higher one (266Hz) will seem more prominent than the other.
Does a tuning fork vibrate because of resonance?
It can, if there's another source of sound nearby, vibrating at the natural frequency of the tuning fork. Example: Two tuning forks with the same natural frequency. The first one can be set vibrating by whacking it against the edge of the table, whereupon the second one will vibrate because it resonates with the first one.
