Question 101

A violinist is tuning the A string on her violin by listening for beats when this note is played simultaneously with a tuning fork of frequency 440 Hz. She hears a beat frequency of 4 Hz. She notices that, when she increases the tension in the string slightly, the beat frequency decreases. What was the frequency of the mistuned A string?
