When two waves of almost equal frequencies $v_1$ and $v_2$ reach a point simultaneously,the time interval between successive maxima is

$A$ tuning fork of frequency $n$ produces $x$ beats per second when sounded with a vibrating sonometer string. What must have been the frequency of the string, when a slight increase in tension produces lesser beats per second than before?

Two vibrating tuning forks produce progressive waves given by ${y_1} = 4\,\sin \left( {500\pi t} \right)$ and ${y_2} = 2\,\sin \left( {506\pi t} \right)$. These tuning forks are held near the ear of a person. The person will hear $\alpha \, \text{beats/s}$ with intensity ratio between maxima and minima equal to $\beta$. Find the value of $\beta - \alpha$.

The frequency of a tuning fork is $256 \ Hz$. It will not resonate with the tuning fork of frequency (in $Hz$)

The correct figure that shows,schematically,the wave pattern produced by the superposition of two waves of frequencies $9\,Hz$ and $11\,Hz$ is:
