Tuning Fork Set – Set of 2 Tuning Forks – by Artec

by Artec Educational

Artec’s Tuning Fork Set is a set of 2 tuning forks that are set a 440 Hertz (Hz) range.  This set is great to teach students and children how air conveys vibration.  Contents included 2 tuning forks that are easily attached to their wooden boxes.  Artec’s Tuning Fork Set also comes with a rubber mallet and a weighted bracket to change the frequency and create a beat generation experiment.  Tuning forks are labelled with hertz range.

Please be aware that the second tuning fork will not be nearly as loud as the tuning fork that has been struck by the mallet, because it is the sound waves causing it to vibrate, and not a direct hit from a solid object.

Artec’s line of science educational supplies for classrooms are a great source for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education and curriculum development for elementary, middle, and high schools.
