Questions  

Two tuning forks have frequencies 380 and 384 Hz respectively. When they are sounded together, they produce 4 beats. After hearing the maximum sound, how long will it take to hear the minimum sound

a
12 sec
b
14 sec
c
18 sec
d
116 sec

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Beat period T=1n1~n2=1384−380=14sec. Hence minimum time interval between maxima and minima t=T2=18sec.
