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 $Hz$)

Beats are produced with the help of two sound waves of amplitudes $3$ and $5$ units. The ratio of maximum to minimum intensity in the beats is

$A$ source of unknown frequency gives $4\, \text{beats/s}$ when sounded with a source of known frequency $250\, \text{Hz}.$ The second harmonic of the source of unknown frequency gives $5\, \text{beats/s}$ when sounded with a source of frequency $513\, \text{Hz}.$ The unknown frequency is .... $\text{Hz}$

Two vibrating tuning forks produce progressive waves given by $y_1 = 4 \sin(500 \pi t)$ and $y_2 = 2 \sin(506 \pi t)$. These tuning forks are held near the ear of a person. The person will hear

The wavelengths of two notes in air are $\frac{36}{195} \,m$ and $\frac{36}{193} \,m$. Each note produces $10$ beats per second separately with a third note of fixed frequency. The velocity of sound in air in $m/s$ is
