Answer:
508Hz
Explanation:
A tuning fork with a frequency of 512 Hz is used to tune a violin. When played together, beats are heard with a frequency of 4 Hz. The string on the violin is tightened and when played again, the beats have a frequency of 2 Hz. The original frequency of the violin was ______.
When two sound waves of different frequency approach your ear, the alternating constructive and destructive interference causes the sound to be alternatively soft and loud - this phenomenon is beat production
frequency is the number of oscillation a wave makes in one seconds.
f1-f2=beats
therefore f1=512Hz
f2=?
beats=4Hz
512Hz-f2=4Hz
f2=512-4
f2=508Hz
the original frequency of the violin is 508Hz
