Question

The wavelengths of two notes in the air are 36 195 m and 36 193 m . each note produces 10 beats per second separately with a third note of fixed frequency. The velocity of sound in air in m s - 1 is, 330, 340, 350, 360

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

Beat frequency= v 1 ~ v 2 Let the frequency of third note be n . Then, 195 v 36 - n = 10 … i And n - 193 v 36 = 10 … i i Adding Eqs. (i) and (ii) v 18 = 20 ⟹ v = 360 m s - 1
