the instrument with the highest sound is the piccolo. The piccolo is basically a miniature Flute, and it has all the same fingerings (what you do with your fingers to make the notes), except you have to make a tighter embrasure (how you purse your lips), and it sounds an octave (eight notes) higher.

What are the different types of acoustic musical instruments and how do they produce sound?

Acoustic musical instruments can be categorized into four main types: string instruments, wind instruments, percussion instruments, and keyboard instruments. String instruments, like guitars and violins, produce sound by vibrating strings that are plucked, strummed, or bowed. Wind instruments, such as flutes and trumpets, create sound by blowing air through a tube or reed, causing vibrations that produce sound waves. Percussion instruments, like drums and cymbals, produce sound by being struck, shaken, or scraped, creating vibrations that produce sound waves. Keyboard instruments, such as pianos and organs, produce sound by pressing keys that trigger hammers or air flow to create vibrations and sound waves.

Why does the violin have the highest pitch?

I assume you mean, highest of the string family. It is the smallest of the 4 orchestral stringed instruments (violin, viola, cello, and double bass), and is therefore able to produce the highest-pitched sounds. The shorter the string which is made to vibrate, the higher its sound.
