The displacement equations of sound waves produced by two sources are given by $y_1 = 5 \sin(400 \pi t)$ and $y_2 = 8 \sin(408 \pi t)$, where $t$ is time in seconds. If the waves are produced simultaneously, the number of beats produced per minute is

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $8$
  • C
    $120$
  • D
    $240$
