Answer:
Time period between the successive beats will be 0.1703 sec
Explanation:
We have given speed of the sound v = 349 m/sec
Wavelength of piano [tex]A\lambda _A=0.766m[/tex]
Wavelength of piano [tex]B\lambda _B=0.776m[/tex]
So frequency of piano A [tex]f_1=\frac{v}{\lambda _1}=\frac{349}{0.766}=455.61Hz[/tex]
Frequency of piano B [tex]f_2=\frac{v}{\lambda _1}=\frac{349}{0.776}=449.74Hz[/tex]
So beat frequency f = 455.61 - 449.74 = 5.87 Hz
So time period [tex]T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{5.87}=0.1703sec[/tex]
So time period between the successive beats will be 0.1703 sec
