उत्तर
Resonance is the basis for radio tuning. You may alter the frequency of the electrical vibrations produced by them by adjusting the values of the individual components in the electronic circuits that make them up. Changing the values of a few electrical components causes vibrations at a frequency that matches the desired radio wave frequency, and that's all. When the two frequencies are in resonance with one another, the incoming waves carry the signal energy of the matching frequency. In the receiver set, the signal is then amplified.

The diagram above shows a wire stretched over a sonometer. Stems of two vibrating tuning forks A and Bare touched to the wooden box of the sonometer. It is observed that the paper rider (a small piece of paper folded at the centre) present on the wire flies off when the stem of vibrating tuning fork B is touched to the wooden box but the paper just vibrates when the stem of vibrating tuning fork A is touched to the wooden box.
