MCQ
The tones that are separated by three octaves have a frequency ratio of
- A$3$
- B$6$
- ✓$8$
- D$16$
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
$8$
c
(c)
(c)
Each octaves is double the frequency of the previous octave.
If initial frequency is $f$.
Final frequency $=2 \times 2 \times 2 f$ or $2^3 f$ or $8 f$
$\therefore$ Frequency ratio $=8: 1$.
