Probable frequencies of tuning fork be 
n+4
 or 
n4
                    Frequency of sonometer wire 
n1l
                    
n+4n4=10095
 or 
95(n+4)=100(n4)
                    or 
95n+380=100n400
 or 
5n=780
 or 
n=156

Letn = Frequency of the tuning fork
n1=Frequency of the wire corresponding to length of L1 (39.5 cm)
n2=Frequency of the wire corresponding to length of L2 (40.5 cm)
The frequency of wire is inversely proportional to its length
Hence,n1>n2
So, n1/n2=n+4 / n−4 [ since number of beats = 4]
But, n1/n2=L2/L1
n+4 / n−4 = 40.5/39.5
40.5n−162=39.5n+158
n=320 HzAns:Frequency of the tuning fork=320 Hz
