-
Description
A pair of steel tuning forks for demonstrating the
beat frequencies mounted on individual boxes.
One fork is provided with an adjustable mass
by means of which frequency may be shifted
from the nominal 426.6Hz. When both forks are
sounded a clearly audible ‘beat’ is produced, its
rate depending upon the difference in frequency
between the forks.
