Two tuning forks $A$ and $B$ produce $8 \, Hz$ beats per second when sounded together. $A$ gas column $37.5 \, cm$ long in a pipe closed at one end resonates in its fundamental mode with fork $A$,whereas a column of length $38.5 \, cm$ of the same gas in a similar pipe is required for resonance with fork $B$. The frequencies of these two tuning forks are:

  • A
    $308 \, Hz, 300 \, Hz$
  • B
    $208 \, Hz, 200 \, Hz$
  • C
    $300 \, Hz, 400 \, Hz$
  • D
    $350 \, Hz, 500 \, Hz$
