To find the possible frequencies of tuning fork B, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the concept of beats When two tuning forks are sounded together, the number of beats heard is equal to the absolute difference in their frequencies. The formula for the number of beats per second (N) is given by: \[ N = |f_1 - f_2| \] where \( f_1 \) is the frequency of tuning fork A and \( f_2 \) is the frequency of tuning fork B. ### Step 2: Calculate the beats per second ...
