What is the expected period of beats formed when two tuning forks sound simultaneously and have the frequencies f1= 250Hz and 242Hz?

you get the sum, and the difference. 8hz, 592hz It will be difficult to hear 8 hz.
then after that 1/592Hz?
you will hear definitely 592hz.
so the period is 1/592 sec
period is 1/f, right?
so if I am looking for period I need to 1/592Hz....which is1.689*10^-3 s, which is very fast
you will at least hear it....
Sorry If the comment above was repeated...Something happened...
so the period 1.689*10^3s
thank you
