A tuning fork is supposed to generate an A5 note (880 Hz). However, by some freak laboratory accident, a paperclip was superglued to one tine of the tuning fork. Now when that tuning fork is rung, there is a distinctive pattern of loudness and quietness, that has been estimated to be around oscillations per second. What is the new frequency of the affected tuning fork tine?
