55776 Experimental Set-Up has been designed specifically to perform Melde’s experiments by using electrically maintained tuning fork. (1) Determination of the frequency of an Electrically Maintained Tuning Fork. (2) Verification 2 of laws of vibrating strings that is to show that l2 /T = constant. The set-up consists of Electrically Maintained Tuning Fork, Stand with Pulley, Light weight pan, Battery eliminator etc.

Practical experience on this setup carries great educative value for Science and Engineering Students.

OBJECT

01 To determine the frequency of an electrically maintained tuning fork by Melde’s experiment using.
1.1 Transverse arraignment.
1.2 Longitudinal arraignment.
02 To verify the laws of vibrating strings by Melde’s experiment that is to show that l2 /T = constant using.
2.1 Transverse arraignment.
2.2 Longitudinal arraignment.

FEATURES

The complete Experimental Set-up consists of the followings :
01 Electrically
maintained : A large heavy nickel plated fork of approx imatel y 60 vibrations is fitted on heavy cost tuning forkiron stand, with a special arraignment enabling the apparatus to be used horizontally or vertically. Complete with electromagnetic relay fitted withsilvered points of contact. Works on 4 - 8 volts battery current. The electromagnet is adjustable so that amplitude of vibration may be varied between wide limits.
02 Stand with pulley
03 Light weight pan
04 Battery Eliminator. (Range 2 to 12V D.C. at 4Amp.)
05 Half metre scale
06 Connecting wires
07 Weight : 11.4 Kg. (Approx.)
08 Strongly supported by detailed Operating Instructions, giving details of Object, Theory, Design procedures, Report Suggestions and Book References.

OTHER APPARATUS REQUIRED :

01 Weight Box.
02 Physical Balance.
