MCQ
Beats are produced by two waves given by $y_1 = a\,\, sin\,\,2000\,\, \pi t$ and $y_2 = a\,\, sin\,\, 2008\,\, \pi t$ . The number of beats heard per second is
  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $1$
  • $4$
  • D
    $8$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$4$
c
Number of beats per second $=\mathrm{n}_{1}=\mathrm{n}_{2}$

$\omega_{1}=2000 \pi=2 \pi n_{1} \Rightarrow n_{1}=1000$

$=\omega_{2}=2008 \pi=2 \pi \mathrm{n}_{2} \Rightarrow \mathrm{n}_{2}=1004$

Number of beats heard per sec

$=1004-1000=4$
