Two waves $y_1=0.35 \sin (316 t)$ and $y_2=0.35 \sin (310 t)$ are propagating along the same direction. The number of beats produced per second are
  1. $\frac{3}{\pi}$
  2. $\frac{2}{\pi}$
  3. $\frac{\pi}{2}$
  4. $\frac{\pi}{3}$

Solution

According to question: $f_1=\frac{316}{2 \pi}$ and, $f_2=\frac{310}{2 \pi}$ Now, The number of beats heard per second $=f_1-f_2=\frac{316}{2 \pi}-\frac{310}{2 \pi}=\frac{3}{\pi}$
