Low Frequency Tuning Fork
Description: A
large tuning fork has a frequency that can be adjusted by moving weights along
the prongs. If the weights are at the tips, the rate of oscillation is slow.
As the weights are moved down the prongs, the frequency increases, becoming
audible at around 20 hertz.
