Question

25 tunning forks are arranged in series in the order of decreasing frequency. Any two successive forks produce 3 beats/sec. If the frequency of the first turning fork is the octave of the last fork, then the frequency of the 21st fork is

  1. 72 Hz    
  2. 288 Hz    
  3. 84 Hz    
  4. 87 Hz    

The correct answer is: 84 Hz


    According to the question frequencies of first and last tuning forks are 2n and n respectively.
    Hence frequency in given arrangement are as follows

    Þ 2n – 24 ´ 3 = n Þ n= 72 Hz
    So, frequency of 21st tuning fork
    n subscript 21 end subscript equals left parenthesis 2 cross times 72 minus 20 cross times 3 right parenthesis equals 84 H z
