A tuning fork is a two-pronged steel device that is used by musicians. When a 1056-Hz tuning fork is struck at the same time a piano note is played, and 3 beats per second is emitted, the frequency of the piano is 1059 Hz.

How are beats useful in tuning musical instruments?
By tuning musical instrument we mean that to produce a note of Desired frequency. Take a standard musical instrument of well defined frequency. The new musical instrument and the standard instrument are sounded together. Initially we will hear mixed sound due to slightly frequency difference between them. The frequency of the musical instrument is gradually adjusted till we will hear same sound. When this happens, the musical instrument Will produce the note of desired frequency and is said to be turned. In this way, beats become useful in tuning a musical instrument.
How do the speed and frequency of electromagnetic radiation differ?
The frequency of an EM wave is how rapidly (ie, how many times per second) it is changing from an electric field maximum to another such maximum -- just like any other wave. Its units are beats per second, or Hertz (often abbreviated as Hz). The speed of an EM wave is how rapidly it moves from one point in space to another point in space. Its units are meters per second (which can be changed to some other units of distance per time, like miles per hour). In a vacuum, various EM waves can have almost infinite frequencies -- but all of them have the exact same speed.
Why is a mosquito's buzz a higher pitch than a bumblebees's?
Faster number of beats of the wings per second
Where are the busiet muscles in the body?
The heart muscle. This muscle beats every second on electrical impulse keeping it on a steady pace. In one day the heart beats 100,000 times on average. In one year it beats about 36.5 million times. In one lifetime, the heart beats over 2.5 billion times, being the bodies busiest organ.
What is the fastest heartbeat ever recorded?
The Amethyst Woodstar Hummingbird has a heart rate of 80 beats per second.
Two tuning forks are struck at the same timeone tuning fork has a frequency of 20 hz while the second tuning fork has a frequency of 226 hz how many beats will result?
11.3 beats
The unit which frequency is measured?
Frequency is measured in Hertz (Hz). It means number of (what you're counting) per second. Ie. waves, revolutions, beats ect.
A nurse counts 76 heartbeats in one minute. What are the period and frequency of the oscillations?
76 beats per minute = 76/60 = 1.267 beats per second = 1.267 Hz Period = 1 / frequency = 1 / 1.267 = 0.789 s
Beats are produced when two tuning forks one of frequency 240 Hz and the other of frequency 246 Hz are sounded together The frequency of the beats is?
6Hz
Two tuning forks struck at the same time one tuning fork has a frequency of 20 hz while the second tuning fork has a frequency of 226 hz how many beats will result?
Number of beats heard in one second will be got by the difference between the parent frequencies. Hope you have given wrong data for parent frequencies. The first one has to be 220 Hz and the other is 226 Hz. Hence 6 beats will be heard in one second. If you say 20 is the right one then difference will be 206. If 206 beats get produced in one second it will not be named as beat at all. Moreover our hearing could not recognize this as beating at all. So better correct the given data.
Beats can be heard when two tuning forks?
Almost the same frequency and are sounded together.
Are multiples of fundamental frequency called beats?
No, they are not.
What is frequency in recording?
The unit of frequency is hertz (Hz) that means 1/second. For example, the frequency of 1 Hz means that an event repeats once per second, 2 Hz is twice per second, and so on. This unit was originally called a cycle per second (cps), which is still sometimes used. Heart rate and musical tempo are measured in beats per minute (BPM). Frequency is not only used in recording.
A 1056-Hz tuning fork is sounded at the same time a piano note is struck You hear three beats per second What is the frequency of the piano string?
Could be 259 Hz.Could be 267 Hz.
What is the frequency response of the beats solo?
3-20,000
How many beats per second does a woodpecker wings beat?
3 beats per second
What would the beat frequency be if you added tones of 880 Hz and 882 Hz?
The number of beats that we hear per second is the beat frequency. It is equal to the difference in the frequencies of the two notes. In this case: Beat frequency = 882 Hz - 880 Hz = 2 Hz. This means that we will hear the sound getting louder and softer 2 times per second.
