Ten tuning forks are arranged in increasing order of frequency in such a way that any two nearest tuning forks produce $4 \text{ beats/sec}$. The highest frequency is twice the lowest. The possible highest and lowest frequencies are:

$A$ tuning fork of known frequency $256\,Hz$ produces $5$ beats per second with the vibrating string of a guitar. The beat frequency decreases to $2$ beats per second when the tension in the guitar string is slightly increased. The frequency of the guitar string before increasing the tension was ..... $Hz$.

Two identical wires have a fundamental frequency $f_0$ when kept under the same tension $T$. If the tension of one wire is increased by $\Delta T$, then $N$ beats occur when both wires oscillate simultaneously. Find the expression for $\frac{\Delta T}{T}$.

Two tuning forks $P$ and $Q$ are vibrated together. The number of beats produced are represented by the straight line $OA$ in the following graph. After loading $Q$ with wax,they are vibrated together again and the beats produced are represented by the line $OB$. If the frequency of $P$ is $341 \ Hz$,the frequency of $Q$ will be ... $Hz$.

Two tuning forks have frequencies $256 \ Hz$ $(A)$ and $262 \ Hz$ $(B)$. Tuning fork $A$ produces a certain number of beats per second with an unknown tuning fork. The same unknown tuning fork produces double the number of beats per second with tuning fork $B$. What is the frequency of the unknown tuning fork in $Hz$?
