(b) $514 Hz$

(c) $516 Hz$

(d) $508 Hz$

Answer:

Correct Answer: 59. (d)

Solution:

  1. (d) The frequency of the piano string $=512 \pm 4=516$ or 508 . When the tension is increased, beat frequency decreases to 2 , it means that frequency of the string is 508 as frequency of string increases with tension.
