To determine if two sound waves of frequencies 480 Hz and 536 Hz will produce beats and whether they can be heard, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the concept of beats Beats occur when two sound waves of slightly different frequencies interfere with each other. The beat frequency is equal to the absolute difference between the two frequencies. ### Step 2: Calculate the beat frequency To find the beat frequency, we subtract the lower frequency from the higher frequency: \[ ...
