This is a great lesson for students to find the equation of a sound wave produced by a tuning fork.
Materials needed:
Tuning Fork
CBL2
TI-84 Graphing Calculator
Microphone Probe
For an assignment you can download the data for a second tuning fork. Run the program and this will enter new data in the calculator for a new tuning fork. Have students determine the equation and frequency for this tuning fork.
