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

If the ratio of intensities of two waves is $4:1$,then the ratio of their maximum and minimum intensities is:

When an air column at $15 ^\circ C$ and a tuning fork are sounded together, $4$ beats per second are produced. The frequency of the fork is less than that of the air column. When the temperature falls to $10 ^\circ C$, the beat frequency decreases by one. The frequency of the fork will be ..... $Hz$ $[V_{sound}$ at $0 ^\circ C = 332, m/s]$.

Two sound waves travelling in the same direction have displacements $y_1 = a \sin(0.2 \pi x - 50 \pi t)$ and $y_2 = a \sin(0.15 \pi x - 46 \pi t)$. How many times can a listener hear sound of maximum intensity in one second?

$P$ and $Q$ are two wires whose fundamental frequencies are $256 \ Hz$ and $382 \ Hz$ respectively. How many beats per second will be heard if the third harmonic of $P$ and the second harmonic of $Q$ are sounded together?
