The video tutorial explores the concept of resonance using tuning forks. It begins with an introduction to resonance and demonstrates how adding or removing a weight changes the sound produced by a tuning fork. The tutorial further illustrates resonance by using a ping pong ball to show how sound waves can cause motion. The video concludes with observations on how proximity affects resonance and the resulting motion of the ping pong ball.
