Two sound waves having frequencies $250 \,Hz$ and $256 \,Hz$ superimpose to produce a beat wave. The resultant beat wave has intensity maximum at $t=0$. After how much time will an intensity minimum be produced at the same point?

  • A
    $\frac{1}{6} \,s$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{24} \,s$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{18} \,s$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{12} \,s$

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:

$A$ source of frequency $\nu$ gives $6 \text{ beats/second}$ when sounded with a source of frequency $200 \text{ Hz}$. The second harmonic of frequency $2\nu$ of the source gives $8 \text{ beats/second}$ when sounded with a source of frequency $420 \text{ Hz}$. The value of $\nu$ is (in $text{ Hz}$)
