The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire of length $l$ is $n_0$. $A$ bridge is now introduced at a distance of $\Delta l$ (where $\Delta l \ll l$) from the center of the wire. The lengths of wire on the two sides of the bridge are now vibrated in their fundamental modes. Then,the beat frequency is nearly
