MCQ
When temperature increases, the frequency of a tuning fork
  • A
    Increases
  • Decreases
  • C
    Remains same
  • D
    Increases or decreases depending on the material

Answer

Correct option: B.
Decreases
b
(b) With temperature rise frequency of tuning fork decreases. Because, the elastic properties are modified when temperature is changed
also, ${n_t} = {n_s}(1 - 0.00011t)$
where ${n_t} = $ frequency at $t^\circ C$, ${n_0}$= frequency at $0^\circ C$
