Usually a strong acid will produce a lower pH, but not always. pH is not a measure of the strength of an acid (or base) but the acidity of a solution, which is dependent on both the strength of the acid or base and its concentration in the solution.
The best way to find the strength of an acidic solution is to test it with a pH indicator. This can tell you the pH of the solution, which indicates the relative strength of the acid. Acids have a pH of below 7. The lower the number, the more acidic the solution is.
pH is -log[H+] and can be found using pH meter.
The strength of a basic solution is represented by the pH of the solution. The greater the pH, the more basic the solution. Solutions with a pH greater than seven are considered to be basic.
If the pH value is 6 or less, the solution is acidic. If the pH is 8 or greater, the solution is basic. A pH of 7 is neutral.

The pH is the negative log of [H+].

pH is to indicate the concentration, while the 'strength' is measures by other means.

If the pH value is 6 or less, the solution is acidic. If the pH is 8 or greater, the solution is basic. A pH of 7 is neutral.
pH is a measure of the acidity of an aqueous solution (a solution where water is the solvent). Specifically it is the negative logarithm of the molar concentration of hydrogen ions. A solution with a pH below 7 is acidic while one with a pH above 7 is basic or alkaline. A pH of 7 is neutral. Note that pH is not a measure of the strength of an acid or base, just how acidic or basic a solution is, which depends both on the strength and concentration of the acid/base.
A factor of 10 is the difference in a pH of 4 and a pH of 5 regardless of what the solution is.
You usually calculate it with a pH stick. Good question!!.
The pH value of the solution depends on the strength of the acid, in other words, acid concentration.
