A trumpet player, using her ear, hears 5 beats per second when she plays a note on her trumpet and simultaneously sounds a 440 Hz tuning fork. After pulling her tuning valve out to slightly increase the length of her trumpet, she hears 3 beats per second against the tuning fork. What was the trumpet players' initial frequency?

Explanation:

The given  frequency of tuning fork is 440 Hz . It produces 5 beats with trumpet wire . That means , the frequency of wire can be 440 ± 5

It can be either 445 or 435

Now the length of wire is increased , by which its frequency decreases . Because frequency is inversely proportional to length of wire .

If we decrease the frequency in 435 , the difference between tuning fork frequency and wire frequency will become greater than 5 even . So it cannot produce 3 beats with it .

If we decrease frequency from 445 , it can become 443 Hz . It gives 3 beat with the tuning fork as given .

Thus the initial frequency of wire is 445 Hz
