$A$ set of $28$ tuning forks is arranged in an increasing order of frequencies. Each fork produces '$x$' beats per second with the preceding fork and the last fork is an octave of the first. If the frequency of the $12^{\text{th}}$ fork is $152 \text{ Hz}$,the value of '$x$' (number of beats per second) is:

Two tuning forks $P$ and $Q$ are vibrated together. The number of beats produced are represented by the straight line $OA$ in the following graph. After loading $Q$ with wax,they are vibrated together again and the beats produced are represented by the line $OB$. If the frequency of $P$ is $341 \ Hz$,the frequency of $Q$ will be ... $Hz$.

For the formation of beats,two sound notes must have:

$41$ tuning forks are arranged in increasing order of frequency such that each produces $5 \text{ beats/second}$ with the next tuning fork. If the frequency of the last tuning fork is double that of the frequency of the first fork,then the frequency of the first and last fork is:
