  3. Tuning fork - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuning_fork

    A tuning fork is a fork-shaped acoustic resonator used in many applications to produce a fixed tone. The main reason for using the fork shape is that, unlike many other types of resonators, it produces a very pure tone, with most of the vibrational energy at the fundamental frequency. The reason for this is that the frequency of the first ...

    Hubble sequence. The Hubble sequence is a morphological classification scheme for galaxies published by Edwin Hubble in 1926. [1][2][3][4] It is often colloquially known as the Hubble tuning-fork diagram because the shape in which it is traditionally represented resembles a tuning fork. It was invented by John Henry Reynolds and Sir James Jeans.

  8. Overtone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overtone

    An overtone is a partial (a "partial wave" or "constituent frequency") that can be either a harmonic partial (a harmonic) other than the fundamental, or an inharmonic partial. A harmonic frequency is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency. An inharmonic frequency is a non-integer multiple of a fundamental frequency.

    Roger Hayward 's Undecidable Monument. An impossible trident, [1] also known as an impossible fork, [2] blivet, [3] poiuyt, or devil's tuning fork, [4] is a drawing of an impossible object (undecipherable figure), a kind of an optical illusion.
