56 tunning forks are arranged in a series that each fork given 4 beats/s with previous one. The frequency of last fork is 3 times that fo first. Then frequency of first fork is :

A

52 Hz

B

56 Hz

C

60 Hz

D

110 Hz

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Let the frequency of 56 forks be
v, v + 4 , v + 2 `xx`4 .......... V + 55 `xx ` 4.
Now v + 55 `xx` 4 = 3v.
`rArr ` 2v = 220 `rArr " " ` v = 110 Hz.
