To solve the problem of determining the possible frequencies of tuning fork B when it is sounded together with tuning fork A, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given information - The frequency of tuning fork A (fA) is given as 400 Hz. - The beat frequency produced when both tuning forks A and B are sounded together is 3 beats per second. ### Step 2: Use the formula for beat frequency The beat frequency is defined as the absolute difference between the frequencies of the two tuning forks: ...
