Two tunig forks of frequency `250Hz` and `256Hz` produce beats. If a maximum is observed just now, after how much time the next maximum is observed at the same place?

A

`1//18sec`

B

`1//24s`

C

`1//6sec`

D

`1//12sec`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Beat frequency `=256-250=6s^-1`
Thus maximum is heard after every `(1)/(6)` second.
