Solution
The correct option is B 2
Net beat frequency = LCM of individual beat frequencies
= LCM of [(n, n–1), (n, n+1), (n–1, n+1)]
= LCM of (1, 1, 2)
= 2 Hz
So, no. of beats per second = 2
Net beat frequency = LCM of individual beat frequencies
= LCM of [(n, n–1), (n, n+1), (n–1, n+1)]
= LCM of (1, 1, 2)
= 2 Hz
So, no. of beats per second = 2
