A shorter instrument like the piccolo or the Clarinet have a higher pitch as opposed to say a Tuba or a Baritone Saxophone which have a lower pitch.

Would a long object make a high or low pitch?

Generally speaking, the longer the instrument, the lower the pitch i.e. tuba; the shorter the instrument, the higher the pitch i.e. picallo. There are variations, such as the french horn, but they are the exception. This principal is also used in tuning; pulling the mouthpiece on a saxophone out will drop the pitch (the instrument is now longer), and pushing it in will raise the pitch (it is now shorter).

Which guitar string would have the lower pitch the guitar string is short and tight or guitar string is really long and loose?

depending on the the individual gauges of the six (6) guitar strings ie: E, A, D, G, B, E, of course the guitar string that is long and loose produces the lowest pitch... A good example of this are the strings on a mandolin or a 'banduria' which has shorter strings compared to the strings on the guitar...because the mandolin/banduria strings are shorter and tighter, it produces higher pitch... "short and tight=higher pitch......long and loose=lower pitch"
