Calculate the frequency of beats produced in air when two sources of sound are activated, one emitting a wavelength of 32 cm and the other of 32.2 cm. The speed of sound in air is 350 m/s.
For source A:
Wavelength ![]()
Velocity ![]()
Frequency
is given by:

For source B:
Velocity ![]()
Wavelength ![]()
Frequency
is given by:

∴ Beat frequency = ![]()
Frequency of beat = 7 per second.
