What does beat frequency tell you?

Binaural beats in the alpha frequencies (8 to 13 Hz) are thought to encourage relaxation, promote positivity, and decrease anxiety. Binaural beats in the lower beta frequencies (14 to 30 Hz) have been linked to increased concentration and alertness, problem solving, and improved memory.

The formula for beat frequency is the difference in frequency of the two superimposed waves . fb =|f2−f1| f1 and f2 are the frequency of two waves.

Comparing two waves of the same wavelength, a higher frequency is associated with faster movement . Comparing two waves of different wavelengths, a higher frequency doesn’t always indicate faster movement, although it can. Waves of different wavelengths can have the same frequency.

The beat frequency refers to the rate at which the volume is heard to be oscillating from high to low volume . For example, if two complete cycles of high and low volumes are heard every second, the beat frequency is 2 Hz.

Speed and frequency are two different things . Speed refers to the distance covered in a set amount of time.

The speed of a wave is unaffected by changes in the frequency .

Wave speed is the distance a wave travels in a given amount of time, such as the number of meters it travels per second. Wave speed is related to wavelength and wave frequency by the equation: Speed = Wavelength x Frequency . This equation can be used to calculate wave speed when wavelength and frequency are known.
