Current Question (ID: 16033)

Question:
$\text{A tuning fork of frequency } 512 \text{ Hz makes } 4 \text{ beats/s with the vibrating strings of a piano.}$ $\text{The beat frequency decreases to } 2 \text{ beats/s when the tension in the piano strings is slightly increased.}$ $\text{The frequency of the piano string before increasing the tension was:}$
Options:
  • 1. $510 \text{ Hz}$
  • 2. $514 \text{ Hz}$
  • 3. $516 \text{ Hz}$
  • 4. $508 \text{ Hz}$
Solution:
$\text{Beat frequency per second} = |f_1 - f_2|$ $\text{Find the frequency of the piano string before increasing the tension.}$ $\text{Let the frequency of the piano is } n_p = \text{frequency of piano.}$ $(n_p \propto \sqrt{T})$ $n_f = \text{frequency of tuning fork} = 512 \text{ Hz}$ $x = \text{Beat frequency} = 4 \text{ beats/s, which is decreasing (4} \rightarrow 2) \text{ after changing the tension of piano wire.}$ $\text{Also, the tension of the piano wire is increasing so } n_p \uparrow$ $\text{Hence, } n_p \uparrow - n_f = x \downarrow \rightarrow \text{wrong}$ $n_f - n_p \uparrow = x \downarrow \rightarrow \text{correct}$ $\Rightarrow n_p = n_f - x = 512 - 4 = 508 \text{ Hz}$ $\text{Therefore, the frequency of the piano string before increasing the tension is } 508 \text{ Hz.}$ $\text{Hence, option (4) is the correct answer.}$
