No. They are much thinner.
Because it's strings are thicker than those on the violin or viola. The bass is the lowest, however, because it's strings are the thickest.
Generally speaking, yes. The strings on a bass are longer than those on the nearest contender, the cello. They also tend to be thicker, because they are often made of different material. When cello and bass strings are made of the same materials, using the same processes, the G (top) string of the bass may be the same or smaller thickness as the C (lowest) string of the 'cello. But then, the bass continues down four more strings!
The Suite by Cassado for solo cello (1926) is in the key of D. Beginning soulfully in D minor, by the last movement this has become a joyful and energetic D major. This key is very suitable for the cello, as it allows the top two strings, A and D, to be exploited fully as part of the wide range of techniques available on the cello, in particular those that use the many possibilities of the open strings.
String instruments usually have anywhere from 1 to 12 strings, depending on the specific instrument. Here are the typical numbers of strings for some common string instruments: Violin: The violin has four strings tuned to the pitches G, D, A, and E. Viola: The viola also has four strings, but they are tuned to the pitches C, G, D, and A. The viola is slightly larger than the violin and has a lower range. Cello: The cello has four strings as well, but they are tuned one octave lower than the viola: C, G, D, and A. The cello is larger than both the violin and viola and produces a deeper and richer sound. Double Bass: The double bass typically has either four strings or five strings. The standard tuning for the four-string double bass is E, A, D, and G, similar to the lowest four strings of a guitar. Some double basses, especially those used in orchestras, may have a low C extension, adding a fifth string tuned to C. Guitar: Guitars can have six strings or twelve strings. The standard six-string guitar is tuned to E, A, D, G, B, and E, from low to high. Twelve-string guitars have double strings for each note, creating a fuller and richer sound. Please note that these are general guidelines, and there may be variations or exceptions for specific types of string instruments.
Not usually. Traditionally, string quartets are composed of two violins, a viola, and a cello. However, there are some compositions that require a double bass in replacement for one of those instruments.
The string family of instruments are those which produce sound by way of strings. Examples - Piano, Guitar, Violin, Sitar, Autoharp, Harp. There are countless others; this is only a small list.
probably not because violin is in treble cleft and cello has a base cleft and violin has an e string that a cello doesn't have and the cello has a c string that the violin doesn't have. A violin has the same strings as a base A cello has the same strings as a viola
* Violin * Viola * Cello * Bass * Harp * Piano Should be mentioned though, that although the Piano contains strings and those same strings resonating produces the sounds we hear, it is not a member of the String family ... it correctly belongs to the Percussion family because of the mannerism that is used to create sound.
For the same gauge designation, yes. "Standard" or "Regular" gauge acoustic strings are .013 to .056. Those would be considered very heavy strings on electric guitar, where "Standard" or "Regular" gauge strings would be .010 to .046.

Pitch is the perceived frequency of sound. this may differ from the actual, measurable frequency of the sound because of overtones and harmonics, which when taken together the auditory part of the brain may perceive slightly differently.
