Ten tuning forks are arranged in increas...

Ten tuning forks are arranged in increasing order of frequency is such a way that any two nearest tuning forks produce `4 beast//sec`. The highest freqeuncy is twice of the lowest. Possible highest and the lowest frequencies are

A

80 and 40

B

100 and 50

C

44 and 32

D

72 and 36

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

In n is frequency of first fork, then frequency of the last (10th fork) `= n + 4(10 -1) = 2n`
`:. N = 36 and 2n = 72`
