The correct option is (D).

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

Given, two instruments produce 1 Hz beats. The beat frequency is the difference of the two frequencies.

Since the given beat frequency is 1Hz, therefore the difference of the two frequencies of the instruments should be 1Hz. From the given options, 440 Hz and 441 Hz have a difference of 1Hz between them.

Conclusion:

Hence, the frequency of notes from the instruments are 440 Hz and 441 Hz.
