Q.15.18 Two sitar strings A and B playing the note ‘Ga’ are slightly out of tune and produce beats of frequency . The tension in the string A is slightly reduced and the beat frequency is found to reduce to . If the original frequency of A is , what is the frequency of B?
Since frequency increases with an increase in Tension, the frequency of string A must have decreased. Therefore .(If it were 330 Hz the beat frequency would have increased with decrease in Tension in string A)
