When two tuning forks (fork $1$ and fork $2$) are sounded simultaneously, $4$ beats per second are heard. Now, some tape is attached on the prong of the fork $2$. When the tuning forks are sounded again, $6$ beats per second are heard. If the frequency of fork $1$ is $200\, Hz$, then what was the original frequency of fork $2$? .... $Hz$
