MCQ
A tuning fork sounded together with a tuning fork of frequency $256$ emits two beats. On loading the tuning fork of frequency $256,$ the number of beats heard are $1$ per second. The frequency of tuning fork is
  • A
    $257$
  • B
    $258$
  • C
    $256$
  • $254$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$254$
$n_1=$ Known frequency $=256, n_{=}=?$$x=2$ bps, which is decreasing after loading (i.e. $x \downarrow$ ) known tuning fork is loaded so $n \downarrow$
Hence $n\downarrow-n=x \downarrow$... (i)$n-n \downarrow=x \downarrow$Gorrect
${cnn}\downarrow=x \downarrow \quad \text {... (ii) }$
$\Rightarrow n_x=n_{-}x=256-2=254\mathrm{~Hz}$
