(a) Since source of frequency $x$ gives $8$ beats per second with frequency $250 Hz, $ 

it's possible frequency are $258$ or $242.$

As source of frequency $x$ gives $12$ beats per second with a frequency $270 Hz,$

it's possible frequencies $282$ or $258 Hz.$

The only possible frequency of $x$ which gives $8$ beats with frequency $250 Hz$ also $12$ beats per second with $258 Hz.$

    A narrow tube is bent in the form of a circle of radius $R,$ as shown in the figure. Two small holes $S$ and $D$ are made in the tube at the positions right angle to each other. A source placed at $S$ generated a wave of intensity $I_0$ which is equally divided into two parts : One part travels along the longer path, while the other travels along the shorter path. Both the part waves meet at the point $D$ where a detector is placed The maximum intensity produced at $D$ is given by
