Standing Tuning Fork
Model Number: MT-1173
The Standing Tuning Fork from Micro Technologies is a mounted acoustics apparatus designed for experiments involving sound production, mechanical vibration, frequency, and resonance. The MT-1173 features a U-shaped tuning fork supported on a stable vertical mounting arrangement, providing convenient positioning for laboratory demonstrations and sound-related investigations.
Product Specification
The Standing Tuning Fork from Micro Technologies is a laboratory acoustics apparatus designed to provide a convenient and stable tuning fork arrangement for sound and vibration experiments. Unlike a conventional handheld tuning fork, the standing model incorporates a supporting base that allows the fork to remain positioned during experimental observations.
The MT-1173 features a traditional U-shaped tuning fork mounted vertically on a supporting stem and base. This configuration provides a stable arrangement for observing the vibration of the fork and conducting suitable acoustic investigations.
When the tuning fork is appropriately struck, its two prongs vibrate at their natural frequency and produce a corresponding sound. The mounted configuration allows the fork to remain stationary while the resulting vibrations and sound phenomena are investigated.
The apparatus is useful for experiments involving natural frequency, mechanical vibration, sound production, resonance, and acoustic behavior. Its standing arrangement can also make it easier to position other compatible apparatus near the vibrating tuning fork during experimental work.
The MT-1173 may be combined with suitable resonance apparatus, sounding arrangements, vibration accessories, or other compatible acoustics equipment according to the experiment being performed.
Its compact vertical construction requires minimal laboratory bench space and provides convenient accessibility to the tuning fork during practical investigations.
Manufactured and supplied by Micro Technologies, the Standing Tuning Fork is suitable for physics laboratories, acoustics laboratories, research facilities, testing laboratories, and other facilities conducting sound and vibration experiments.

FAQs
What is the MT-1173 Standing Tuning Fork used for?
The MT-1173 is designed for experiments involving sound production, mechanical vibration, natural frequency, resonance, and related acoustic phenomena.
What is the model number of this Standing Tuning Fork?
The Micro Technologies model number is MT-1173.
How is a Standing Tuning Fork different from a regular tuning fork?
A standing tuning fork is mounted on a supporting stem and base, allowing it to remain in a stable position during experiments instead of being continuously held by hand.
Can the MT-1173 be used for resonance experiments?
Yes. It can be incorporated into compatible experimental arrangements for demonstrating and investigating resonance and natural frequency.
Does the Standing Tuning Fork require electricity?
No. The tuning fork is mechanically excited and does not require an electrical power supply for basic sound and vibration experiments.
Can the vibration of the tuning fork be studied?
Yes. The apparatus is suitable for investigations demonstrating that mechanical vibration of the tuning-fork prongs produces sound.
