A tuning fork vibrating with a sonometer having a wire of length $20 \,cm$ produces $5$ beats per second. The beats frequency does not change if the length of the wire is changed to $21 \,cm$. The frequency of the tuning fork must be ............ $Hz$
A
$200$
B
$210$
C
$205$
D
$215$
Solution
(c)
Let frequency of tuning fork be $f$.
From question we know the frequencies of sonometer wire $\left(\frac{v}{21}\right)$ are $\frac{v}{2 \times 0.2}$ and $\frac{v}{2 \times 0.21}$
$\operatorname{Now} \frac{v}{0.4}-f=8$
$f-\frac{v}{0.42}=5 \quad \dots(ii)$
Solving $(i)$ and $(ii)$, answer is $(c)$
