?:definition
  • Small metal instruments consisting of a stem and two prongs, resembling a two-pronged fork, that act as an acoustic resonator. Tuning forks produce a constant pitch when either prong is struck. The device is made of an elastic metal, and the prongs form a U-shaped bar. Tuning forks pitch depends on the length and mass of the two prongs. Some tuning forks have weights attached to the end of the prongs. These devices are usually used to evaluate hearing loss or vibratory sensation.
