$A$ set of $28$ tuning forks is arranged in an increasing order of frequencies. Each fork produces '$x$' beats per second with the preceding fork and the last fork is an octave of the first. If the frequency of the $12^{\text{th}}$ fork is $152 \text{ Hz}$,the value of '$x$' (number of beats per second) is:

$25$ tuning forks are arranged in series in the order of decreasing frequency. Any two successive forks produce $3 \, Hz$ beats. If the frequency of the first tuning fork is the octave of the last fork,then the frequency of the $21^{st}$ fork is .... $Hz$

Two identical straight wires are stretched so as to produce $6$ beats per second when vibrating simultaneously. On changing the tension in one of them,the beat frequency remains unchanged. Denoting by ${T_1}$ and ${T_2}$ the higher and the lower initial tensions in the strings,respectively,then it could be said that while making the above change in tension:

$A$ tuning fork arrangement (pair) produces $4 \, beats/sec$ with one fork of frequency $288 \, cps$. $A$ little wax is placed on the unknown fork and it then produces $2 \, beats/sec$. The frequency of the unknown fork is .... $cps$.

Two sources of sound are emitting progressive waves $y_1 = 4 \sin(710 \pi t)$ and $y_2 = 3 \sin(702 \pi t)$. The sources are placed close to each other. The number of beats heard per second and the intensity ratio between waxing and waning are respectively:
