If you make a musical instrument shorter will it have a high or low frequency?

Smaller instruments produce higher frequencies. Compare, for example, the violin, the viola, and the bass. All have the same shape, but increasing size, with correspondingly lower pitch.

Are the wavelengths of high frequency sounds short or long?
Shorter the wavelength higher the frequency so naturally high frequency soundwaves are short
What do light waves of greater frequency have?
The meaning of a high frequency wave is a shorter wavelength.For electromagnetic waves in general (including light):* At greater frequencies, you get shorter wavelengths.* At greater frequencies, you get more energy per photon.
Do high frequency sound waves have a higher or lower pitch than low frequency sound wave?
Yes! All sound waves, regardless of pitch move at the same speed provided they are in the same medium. Differences in frequency cause the sound to be perceived as higher or lower. A high pitched sound has a higher frequency and shorter wavelength while low pitched sounds have lower frequencies and longer wavelengths
What wave has a higher frequency microwave of X-ray?
An X-ray is a high frequency (high energy) electromagnetic wave. It is much higher in frequency than any broadcast wave. The only electromagnetic radiation with higher frequency (shorter wavelength) than the X-ray is the gamma ray.
Which has the greater frequency a 300 nm photon or a 500 nm photon?
frequency = 1/s c = m/s lambda = m (wavelength) c/lambda m/s/m= frequency 1/s 300,000E9mm/s / 300nm > 300,000E9nm/s / 500nm So no, the shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency. This is why very small waves such as gamma waves are very dangerous; they have a very high frequency compared to feet long waves such as Radio waves.
If you make a musical instrument shortter will it have a high or low frequency?
That would surely depend on the specific instrument, and the way it produces its sound. Two examples:A shorter string will vibrate faster, and therefore produce a higher frequency.Similarly, the air in a shorter tube will vibrate faster, and therefore produce a higher frequency.
High pitched musical instruments?
One high pitched musical instrument is an oboe. Other high pitched musical instrument include a flue and a piccolo.
Are the wavelengths of high frequency sounds short or long?
Shorter the wavelength higher the frequency so naturally high frequency soundwaves are short
How are high-frequency sounds different from low-frequency?
Their wavelengths are shorter, and they are perceived as having higher pitch.
The high the frequency of a sound wave means?
the shorter the wave-length
What do light waves of greater frequency have?
The meaning of a high frequency wave is a shorter wavelength.For electromagnetic waves in general (including light):* At greater frequencies, you get shorter wavelengths.* At greater frequencies, you get more energy per photon.
Can measuring a crest tell you that a wave has high frequency?
when a wave has a higher frequency, its waves are shorter. when a wave has a lower frequency, its waves are longer.
What is the plot of the book 'High School Musical'?
The plot is the flim,just shorter!
Why does a flute produce a higher pitched sound than a tuba?
A flute has a higher pitched sound than a uba because it has a shorter tube length. Remember: wave speed= wave length x frequency ..and a higher frequency equals a higher pitch and a low frequency equals a low pitch, a smaller wave length equals a high frequency and a larger wave length equals a low frequency/
What musical instrument that has high and brilliant?
Glockenspiel, celesta, flute, piccolo, harp, violin, triangle, crotals
What is the name of a musical instrument that starts with the letter H?
harp harpsichord high hat (cymbal) harmonica
High pitch instruments?
One high pitched musical instrument is an Oboe. Other high pitched musical instrument include a flue and a piccolo.
