A tuning fork of frequency \(512\) Hz makes \(4\) beats/s with the vibrating string of a piano. The beat frequency decreases to \(2\) beats/s when the tension in the piano string is slightly increased. The frequency of the piano string before increasing the tension was:
1. \(510\) Hz
2. \(514\) Hz
3. \(516\) Hz
4. \(508\) Hz

A wave in a string has an amplitude of 2 cm. The wave travels in the positive direction of the x-axis with a speed of 128 m/s and it is noted that 5 complete waves fit in the 4 m length of the string. The equation describing the wave is:

1. y = (0.02)m sin(7.85x+1005t)
2. y = (0.02)m sin(15.7x -2010t)
3. y = (0.02)m sin(15.7x+2010t)
4. y = (0.02)m sin(7.85x -1005t)
