When two tuning forks (fork $1$ and fork $2$) are sounded simultaneously,$4$ beats per second are heard. Now,some tape is attached to the prong of fork $2$. When the tuning forks are sounded again,$6$ beats per second are heard. If the frequency of fork $1$ is $200 \, Hz$,then what was the original frequency of fork $2$ (in $, Hz$)?

Two strings $X$ and $Y$ of a sitar produce a beat frequency of $4 \ Hz$. When the tension of the string $Y$ is slightly increased,the beat frequency is found to be $2 \ Hz$. If the frequency of $X$ is $300 \ Hz$,then the original frequency of $Y$ was .... $Hz$.
