Tovi is playing a flute and Dawn is playing a violin. At the beginning of the performance, they tuned their instruments by ear, so the difference between the fundamental frequencies of the A notes played on each instrument was less than 1 HzHz. At the end of the performance, they measured the A note fundamental frequencies of their instruments using a device that measures sound frequency with uncertainty 0.05 HzHz. Dawn's A was 441.8 HzHz and Tovi's was 439.3 HzHz. What is the beat frequency heard when Dawn and Tovi simultaneously play the A note at the end of the performance?
A violinist is tuning her instrument to concert A (440 Hz).
