The phenomenon of beats can take place:
1. | for longitudinal waves only. |
2. | for transverse waves only. |
3. | for both longitudinal and transverse waves. |
4. | for sound waves only. |
Two identical wires are stretched by the same tension \(100\) N and each emits a node of frequency \(200\) Hz. If the tension in one wire is increased by \(1\) N, then the beat frequency is:
1. \(2\) Hz
2. \(\dfrac12\) Hz
3. \(1\) Hz
4. none of these
Two sitar strings A and B playing the note ‘Dha’ are slightly out of tune and produce beats of frequency \(5\) Hz. The tension of the string B is slightly increased and the beat frequency is found to decrease to \(3\) Hz. What is the original frequency of B if the frequency of A is \(427\) Hz?
1. \(432\) Hz
2. \(424\) Hz
3. \(430\) Hz
4. \(422\) Hz
Two sitar strings, \(A\) and \(B,\) playing the note \(Ga,\) are slightly out of tune and produce \(6~\text{Hz}\) beats. The tension in the string \(A\) is slightly reduced, and the beat frequency is found to be reduced to \(3~\text{Hz}\). If the original frequency of \(A\) is \(324~\text{Hz}\), what is the frequency of \(B\)?
1. \(316~\text{Hz}\)
2. \(318~\text{Hz}\)
3. \(319~\text{Hz}\)
4. \(314~\text{Hz}\)
