Two loudspeakers $L_1$ and $L_2$ driven by a common oscillator and amplifier, are arranged as shown. The frequency of the oscillator is gradually increased from zero and the detector at $D$ records a series of maxima and minima. If the speed of sound is $330\,ms^{-1}$ then the frequency at which the first maximum is observed is .... $Hz$
