$A$ tuning fork $A$ of frequency $250 \,Hz$ and another tuning fork $B$ of frequency $x$ produce $5$ beats per second when vibrated together. If the fork $B$ is waxed and vibrated together with $A$, then $3$ beats per second are produced. Then $x=$ (in $\,Hz$)

Two sitar strings $A$ and $B$ playing the note $Sa$ are slightly out of tune and produce beats of frequency $5 \ Hz$. The tension of the string $B$ is slightly decreased and the beat frequency is found to decrease to $3 \ Hz$. What is the original frequency of $B$,if the frequency of $A$ is $255 \ Hz$?

$A$ tuning fork $A$ of unknown frequency produces $5 \, beats/s$ with a fork of known frequency $340 \, Hz$. When fork $A$ is filed,the beat frequency decreases to $2 \, beats/s$. What is the frequency of fork $A$ in $Hz$?

$50$ tuning forks are arranged in increasing order of their frequencies such that each gives $4 \, \text{beats/sec}$ with its previous tuning fork. If the frequency of the last fork is the octave of the first, then the frequency of the first tuning fork is ... $Hz$.
