Beat Frequency Formula
Formula
f_beat = |f₁ - f₂|
Where:
- • f_beat = beat frequency (Hz)
- • f₁ = first frequency (Hz)
- • f₂ = second frequency (Hz)
The beat frequency is the absolute difference between the two frequencies.
Applications
- • Tuning musical instruments
- • Doppler effect measurements
- • Frequency modulation
- • Sound wave interference
- • Radio frequency mixing
