Beats are produced by two waves given by $y_1 = a \sin(2000 \pi t)$ and $y_2 = a \sin(2008 \pi t)$. The number of beats heard per second is

Two sound waves of slightly different frequencies propagating in the same direction produce beats due to

Two vibrating strings $A$ and $B$ produce beats of frequency $8 \ Hz$. The beat frequency is found to reduce to $4 \ Hz$ if the tension in the string $A$ is slightly reduced. If the original frequency of $A$ is $320 \ Hz$, then the frequency of $B$ is: (in $Hz$)

Two strings $X$ and $Y$ of a sitar produce a beat frequency of $4 \ Hz$. When the tension of the string $Y$ is slightly increased,the beat frequency is found to be $2 \ Hz$. If the frequency of $X$ is $300 \ Hz$,then the original frequency of $Y$ was .... $Hz$.
