Two identical piano wires,kept under the same tension $T$,have a fundamental frequency of $600\, Hz$. The fractional increase in the tension of one of the wires which will lead to the occurrence of $6\, beats/s$ when both the wires oscillate together would be:

  • A
    $0.01$
  • B
    $0.02$
  • C
    $0.03$
  • D
    $0.04$
