Set of Tuning Forks for a wide range of experiments
The Altay Set of Tuning Forks contains eight tuning forks representing a full octave of frequencies with a soft protective case and a rubber mallet. You can study resonance, interference, beats and the relationship among them.
The set also contains tuning forks of exact multiple frequencies of each other (for example 256 kHz and 512 kHz), allowing you to perform interesting experiments in harmonics.
Ideal for use with the Vernier LabQuest using the built in microphone or the LabQuest Mini and Microphone sensor to demonstrate frequencies and calibration.
