Two waves $Y_1 = A_1 \sin(\omega t - \beta_1)$ and $Y_2 = A_2 \sin(\omega t - \beta_2)$ superimpose to form a resultant wave whose amplitude is

Two loudspeakers $L_1$ and $L_2$,driven by a common oscillator and amplifier,are arranged as shown. The frequency of the oscillator is gradually increased from zero,and the detector at $D$ records a series of maxima and minima. If the speed of sound is $330 \, m/s$,then the frequency at which the first maximum is observed is .... $Hz$.

$A$ narrow tube is bent in the form of a circle of radius $R,$ as shown in the figure. Two small holes $S$ and $D$ are made in the tube at positions right-angled to each other. $A$ source placed at $S$ generates a wave of intensity $I_0$ which is equally divided into two parts: one part travels along the longer path,while the other travels along the shorter path. Both the waves meet at point $D$ where a detector is placed. The maximum value of $\lambda$ to produce a minima at $D$ is given by
