What causes the formation of beats in sounds?

$56$ tuning forks are arranged in increasing order of frequencies in a series such that each fork gives $4 \text{ beats per second}$ with the previous one. The frequency of the last fork is the octave of the first. The frequency of the first fork is ..... $Hz$.

View Solution

The beats are produced when there is a superposition of two sound waves which have:

$A$ tuning fork and an air column whose temperature is $51^{\circ} C$ produce $4$ beats in one second,when sounded together. When the temperature of the air column decreases,the number of beats per second decreases. When the temperature is $16^{\circ} C$,only one beat per second is produced. The frequency of the tuning fork is ........... $Hz$.
