Two tuning forks of frequencies $320 \,Hz$ and $480 \,Hz$ are sounded together to produce sound waves. The velocity of sound in air is $320 \,ms^{-1}$. The difference between the wavelengths of these waves is nearly: (in $cm$)

  • A
    $48$
  • B
    $16.5$
  • C
    $33$
  • D
    $42$

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 .... $Hz$.

When two tuning forks (fork $1$ and fork $2$) are sounded simultaneously,$4$ beats per second are heard. Now,some tape is attached to the prong of fork $2$. When the tuning forks are sounded again,$6$ beats per second are heard. If the frequency of fork $1$ is $200 \, Hz$,then what was the original frequency of fork $2$ (in $, Hz$)?

The frequency of tuning fork $A$ is $256\,Hz$. It produces $4\,beats/sec$ with tuning fork $B$. When wax is applied to tuning fork $B$,$6\,beats/sec$ are heard. By reducing a small amount of wax,$4\,beats/sec$ are heard. The frequency of $B$ is .... $Hz$.

Two harmonic waves moving in the same direction superimpose to form a wave $x = a \cos(1.5 t) \cos(50.5 t)$ where $t$ is in seconds. Find the period with which they beat (close to the nearest integer). (in $s$)

$A$ 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 $Hz$)?
