Allen and his lab partner each held a tuning fork, frequency 440 Hz, in their hands. Allen tapped his tuning fork with a mallet and they listened to the sound it made. "Wait a minute!" exclaimed Allen's partner. "My tuning fork is vibrating too!" Sure enough, both tuning forks were vibrating although only Allen hit his with the mallet. How can you explain this?
