Answer:
259 Hz or 269 Hz
Explanation:
Beat: This is the phenomenon obtained when two notes of nearly equal frequency are sounded together. The S.I unit of beat is Hertz (Hz).
From the question,
Beat = f₂-f₁................ Equation 1
Note: The frequency of the other instrument is either f₁ or f₂.
If the unknown instrument's frequency is f₁,
Then,
f₁ = f₂-beat............ equation 2
Given: f₂ = 264 Hz, Beat = 5 Hz
Substitute into equation 2
f₁ = 264-5
f₁ = 259 Hz.
But if the unknown frequency is f₂,
Then,
f₂ = f₁+Beat................. Equation 3
f₂ = 264+5
f₂ = 269 Hz.
Hence the beat could be 259 Hz or 269 Hz
