Class Activity Tuning Fork Frequency

• Goal
• To measure the frequency generated by 5 different
  tuning forks.
• Sound detectors will be utilized to determine f
• Compare the measured frequency to the rated
  frequency.
• Calculate the l of the sound waves created

3
Data Sound Detectors

• Generate and capture the wave pattern created by
  each tuning fork.
• Determine f
