Science Tuning Fork Lab!

For the first time for seventh grade science we created our own labs! We were given a group and a tuning fork and were told to create an experiment that anyone could understand. Some of the results were shocking and I think the whole class was shocked on what a wave could do. It was fun and the entire class enjoyed doing it while we learned what a wave effects.
We learned things such as: how a wave effects a liquid and why it does what it does. My team had five liquids and we stuck the tuning fork into the liquid. Some of the liquids like the baking soda + water and the carbonated water splashed everywhere! But when we stuck it in thicker liquids it hardly reacted. My group determined that when a wave interacted with a thicker liquid the energy of the wave would be absorbed the liquid, but when the wave interacted with a thinner liquid the energy of the wave would be transmitted to the liquid.
