Two sources of sound are emitting progressive waves $y_1 = 4 \sin(710 \pi t)$ and $y_2 = 3 \sin(702 \pi t)$. The sources are placed close to each other. The number of beats heard per second and the intensity ratio between waxing and waning are respectively:

  • A
    $4, 16:9$
  • B
    $8, 16:9$
  • C
    $4, 49:1$
  • D
    $8, 49:1$
