- An audio transmitter \((T)\) and a receiver \((R)\) are hung vertically from two identical massless strings of length 8 m with their pivots well separated along the \(X\) axis. They are pulled from the equilibrium position in opposite directions along the \(X\) axis by a small angular amplitude \(\theta_0=\cos ^{-1}(0.9)\) and released simultaneously. If the natural frequency of the transmitter is 660 Hz and the speed of sound in air is \(330 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), the maximum variation in the frequency (in Hz ) as measured by the receiver (Take the acceleration due to gravity \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\) ) is \(\qquad\)
