When two sound sources of the same amplitude but of slightly different frequencies $v_1$ and $v_2$ are sounded simultaneously, the sound one hears has a frequency equal to

  • A

    $\left| {{v_1} - {v_2}} \right|$

  • B

    $\left[ {\frac{{{v_1} + {v_2}}}{2}} \right]$

  • C

    $\sqrt {{v_1}{v_2}} $

  • D

    $\left[ {{v_1} + {v_2}} \right]$
