Two tuning forks, \(A\) and \(B\), vibrating simultaneously produce \(5\) beats. The frequency of \(B\) is \(512~\text{Hz}\). It is seen that if one arm of \(A\) is filed a little, then the number of beats increases. The frequency of \(A\) in Hz will be:
1. \(502\) 2. \(507\)
3. \(517\) 4. \(522\)

Two waves are propagating to the point \(P\) along a straight line produced by two sources, \(A\) and \(B\), of simple harmonic and equal frequency. The amplitude of every wave at \(P\) is \(a\) and the phase of \(A\) is ahead by \(\frac{\pi}{3}\) than that of \(B\), and the distance \(AP\) is greater than \(BP\) by \(50~\text{cm}\). If the wavelength is \(1~\text{m}\), then the resultant amplitude at point \(P\) will be:
1. \(2a\)
2. \(a\sqrt{3}\)
3. \(a\sqrt{2}\)
4. \(a\)
