In the time it takes for a tuning fork to make one vibration, the wave generated in air will travel a distance equal to the wavelength of the sound produced. This distance can be calculated using the formula: distance = speed × time. The speed of sound in air is approximately 343 meters per second at room temperature. Thus, the distance traveled by the wave in that time will be equal to the product of the speed of sound and the period of the tuning fork's vibration.
