Two sitar strings A and B playing the note 'Dha' are slightly out of tune and produce beats of frequency 5 Hz. The tension of string B is slightly increased and the beat frequency is found to decrease to 3 Hz. What is the original frequency of B, if the frequency of A is 427 Hz?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`422 Hz`
the frequency of `B lt` frequency of A
`rArrf_(A)-f_(B)=5rArr427-f_(B)=5 rArr f_(B)=422Hz`
