Dear aspirant

Beats definition . When two objects vibrate with different frequencies, you hear a fluctuating sound (soft and loud sound alternatively). This phenomenon is known as beats or beats frequency of sound.

When two sound waves of slightly different frequencies approach your ear, you hear a fluctuating sound (soft and loud sound alternatively). This phenomenon is known as beats. The loud sound is caused by the constructive interference and the soft sound is caused by the destructive interference.

Thank you
