Eleven tuning forks are arranged in increasing order of frequency in such a way that any two consecutive tuning forks produce \(4\) beats per second. The highest frequency is twice that of the lowest. The highest and the lowest frequencies (in Hz) are, respectively:
1. \(100~\text{and}~50\) 2. \(44~\text{and}~22\)
3. \(80~\text{and}~40\) 4. \(72~\text{and}~30\)
