MCQ
A tuning fork gives $4$ beats with $50\, cm$ length of a sonometer wire if the length of  the wire is shortened by $1\, cm$. the no. of beats still the same. The frequency of the  fork is -............. $\mathrm{Hz}$
  • $396$
  • B
    $400$
  • C
    $404$
  • D
    $384$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$396$
a
$n \propto \frac{1}{l}$

$\frac{n-4}{n+4}=\frac{49}{50}$

$\mathrm{n}=396 \mathrm{\,Hz}$
