Beats are produced by two waves given by $y_1 = a \sin 2 000 \pi t$ and $y_{2} = a \sin 2008 \pi t$ . The number of beats heard per second is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Number of beats per second = $n_1 \sim n_2$
$\omega_{1} = 2 000 \pi = 2 \pi n_{1}$ ⇒ ⇒ n 1 = 1000
and $\omega_{2} = 2008 \pi = 2 \pi m_{2}$ ⇒ ⇒ n 2 = 1004
Number of beats heard per sec = 1004 - 1000 = 4
