    Two waves of wavelength 50 cm and 51cm produce 12 beats per sec. The velocity of sound will be

    A) 340 m/s

    B)                        332 m/s               

    C)                        153 m/s               

    D)        306 m/s

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    The frequency of beats is given by \[n={{n}_{1}}-{{n}_{2}}=\frac{\upsilon }{{{\lambda }_{1}}}-\frac{\upsilon }{{{\lambda }_{2}}}=\upsilon \left( \frac{1}{0.5}-\frac{1}{0.51} \right)\] \[12=\upsilon (2-1.9608)=\upsilon \times 0.0392\] \[\upsilon =\frac{12}{0.0392}\approx 306\,m/s\]
