Two tuning forks, $A$ and $B$, give $4$ beats per second when sounded together. The frequency of $A$ is $320 Hz.$ When some wax is added to $B$ and it is sounded with $A, 4$ beats per second are again heard. The frequency of $B$ is  .... $Hz$

(c) $n_A -n_B \downarrow  = x$ (same) ... $(i)$ $\rightarrow$ Wrong
$n_B \downarrow  -n_A = x$ (same) ... $(ii)$ $\rightarrow$ Correct
==> $n_B = n_A + x = 320 + 4 = 324 Hz.$
