Exploring resonance

9 For this experiment, you will need;
  • Tuning forks
  • A large tank of water
  • A large hollow tube

Hold the hollow tube, circular face down in the water.  Sound a tuning fork and hold it above the open end of the pipe whilst adjusting the length of tube in the water until you can hear the sound resonate.   Repeat the experiment for other frequencies of tuning fork and record your findings.
