Tuning fork constrained and unconstrained vibrations

http://video_demos.colostate.edu/

Tuning fork vibration, sound, and spectral analysis. The differences between finger-held (constrained) and string-hung (relatively unconstrained) cases are examined.

More engineering and physics-related video demonstrations can be found here:

Broken video, pity...., it looked very interesting

@DarkMedievalTimes1

What do you mean by "broken." It seems to be playing fine for me.

@DrDaveBilliards Strange, it's actually working for me now... What was happening was it streamed in alright but wouldn't play past the 1 minute mark for me. Very informative, thanks. Have you done any more vids on sprectrum analysis by any chance? I'm doing a college assignment at the moment where I need to pick a random acoustic instrument and do a frequency analysis between two and four notes over it's pitch range. Any advice would be more than welcome....

All of my videos on this topic can be found in the "Sound and Vibration" section of my Video Demos website (see the link in the video description).

Good luck with your project.

@DrDaveBilliards Thanks, much obliged ; )
