A tuning fork is a metallic instrument that produces a specific pitch when struck. It consists of a U-shaped fork with two prongs and is typically made of steel. When the fork is struck against a surface, it vibrates and creates sound waves at a precise frequency, which is determined by the length and mass of the prongs.
