A tuning fork A produces 4 beats/second with another tuning fork B of frequency 288 Hz. When the fork A is loaded with a little wax. The beat frequency changes to 2. The frequency of the fork A before loading is (in Hz)-

A

290

B

C

292

D

284

Answer

292

Explanation

Solution

288 – nA = 4 , nA = 284 Hz

or nA – 288 = 4 , nA = 292 Hz

On loading wax nA decreases so 284 Hz Can't be the answer
