How do beats help determine whether two sound waves are the same frequency?

A sound known as a "beat frequency" will be heard when two sounds of almost (but not quite) the same frequency are mixed together. This is commonly heard when tuning a stringed instrument (such as a guitar) into itself, or when tuning to a standard pitch generator. If the string is vibrating at exactly the same frequency as the standard, then no beat frequency is heard. If the string is vibrating at a just slightly different frequency from the standard, then the interference between the two sounds is heard as a regular "beat". The frequency of the beat is exactly equal to the difference between the two frequencies i.e. if the standard is 440 Hz and the string is vibrating at 441 Hz, then a beat frequency of 1 Hz will be heard.


What causes two sound waves to combine and produce no sound?
