S1 and S2 are two identical sound sources of frequency 656 Hz. The source S1 is located at O and S2 moves anti-clockwise with a uniform speed 42 m s-1 on a circular path around O, as shown in the figure. There are three points P, Q and R on this path such that P and R are diametrically opposite while Q is equidistant from them. A sound detector is placed at point P. The source S1 can move along direction OP.
[Given: The speed of sound in air is 324 m s1]

Consider both sources emitting sound. When S2 is at R and S1 approaches the detector with a speed 4 m s-1, the beat frequency measured by the detector is _____ Hz.
