$A$ tuning fork of frequency $392 \, Hz$ resonates with $50 \, cm$ length of a string under tension $T$. If the length of the string is decreased by $2 \%$,keeping the tension constant,the number of beats heard when the string and the tuning fork are made to vibrate simultaneously is

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $6$
  • C
    $8$
  • D
    $12$

Two vibrating tuning forks produce progressive waves given by ${y_1} = 4\,\sin \left( {500\pi t} \right)$ and ${y_2} = 2\,\sin \left( {506\pi t} \right)$. These tuning forks are held near the ear of a person. The person will hear $\alpha \, \text{beats/s}$ with intensity ratio between maxima and minima equal to $\beta$. Find the value of $\beta - \alpha$.
