Problem 56
Tuning Fork The end of a tuning fork moves in simple harmonic motion described by the function \(d(t)=a \sin (\omega t)\) If a tuning fork for the note \(\mathrm{E}\) above middle \(\mathrm{C}\) on an even-tempered scale \(\left(\mathrm{E}_{4}\right)\) has a frequency of approximately 329.63 hertz (cycles per second), find \(\omega\). If the maximum displacement of the end of the tuning fork is 0.025 millimeter, Find a function that describes the movement of the tuning fork.
