When two sound sources of the same amplitude but of slightly different frequencies $v_1$ and $v_2$ are sounded simultaneously,the sound one hears has a frequency equal to

  • A
    $\left| v_1 - v_2 \right|$
  • B
    $\frac{v_1 + v_2}{2}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{v_1 v_2}$
  • D
    $v_1 + v_2$

Two tuning forks $A$ and $B$ produce notes of frequencies $258 \,Hz$ and $262 \,Hz$. An unknown note sounded with $A$ produces certain beats. When the same note is sounded with $B$, the beat frequency gets doubled. The unknown frequency is (in $\,Hz$)

$A$ tuning fork of frequency $480 \ Hz$ produces $10$ beats per second when sounded with a vibrating sonometer string. What must have been the frequency of the string if a slight increase in tension produces fewer beats per second than before?

Two identical piano wires,kept under the same tension $T$,have a fundamental frequency of $600\, Hz$. The fractional increase in the tension of one of the wires which will lead to the occurrence of $6\, beats/s$ when both the wires oscillate together would be:

The frequency of a tuning fork is $220 \,Hz$ and the velocity of sound in air is $330 \,m/s$. When the tuning fork completes $80$ vibrations, the distance travelled by the sound wave is: (in $\,m$)

$A$ tuning fork $A$,marked $512 \ Hz$,produces $5$ beats per second when sounded with another unmarked tuning fork $B$. If $A$ is loaded with wax,the number of beats is again $5$ per second. What is the frequency of the tuning fork $B$ when not loaded (in $Hz$)?
