Why does increasing the tension on a guitar string increase the pitch when plucked?
yes because, as the string gets tighter it will be harder for the string to move
What feature of sound are you adjusting if you tighten or loosen guitar strings?
Tightening the strings increases the pitch, loosening them lowers it. This is because you are changing the length of the string as you turn the tuning pegs.
Why does tightening a guitar string raise the pitch of the string when it is played?
It increases the frequency of the sound waves produced by by the plucked string.
How does tightening the string of a violin change its vibration?
There are some complex physics behind string vibrations. Essentially, the looser the string, the less nodes, or points where the sound waves go from crest to trough. This of course affects the frequency, or rate at which the string vibrates. So when the string is tightened, more nodes are created, and the frequency increases, increasing the pitch.
What does the length of a string on a guitar have to do with pitch?
Vibrations run up and down the string at the sound of speed. The longer the string the lower the frequency of the wave biting both ends, resulting in a lower pitch. Frequency is simply the frequency of the vibrations.
How do you change the frequency of a guitar?
To change the frequency of a guitar string, you would adjust the tension on the string by turning the tuning pegs. Tightening the string increases the frequency, while loosening it decreases the frequency. Tune the string to the desired pitch using a guitar tuner or by ear.
How does loosening a string change the sound of a guitar string?
It causes the string to vibrate more slowly, decreasing the pitch (frequency).
Explain how you could change the pitch and frequency of the sound of a guitar?
To change the pitch of a guitar, you can adjust the tension of the strings by using the tuning pegs. Tightening the string increases the pitch, while loosening it decreases the pitch. Changing the frequency involves plucking the string at different points along its length; shorter lengths produce higher frequencies and higher pitches.
How do you tighten string g on an electric guitar?
Turn the peg at the top of the guitar right if you are loosening the string, left if your tightening the string. Hope it helps- Roxas riku

When you increase the length of the quitar srting the pithch or vibratuion speed that is produced becomes?
When you increase the length of a guitar string, the pitch produced becomes lower, as the longer string vibrates at a lower frequency. Conversely, when you decrease the length of the string, the pitch becomes higher because the shorter string vibrates at a higher frequency.
If we wrap a second wire around a guitar string to increase its mass what effect does this have on the frequency and wavelength of the fundamental standing wave formed on that string?
Increasing the mass of the guitar string by wrapping a second wire around it will decrease the frequency of the fundamental standing wave because the wave speed remains constant. The wavelength of the standing wave will be longer due to the decrease in frequency.
What does one have to adjust to tune a guitar?
When adjusting the tune of the strings on a guitar, one will need to mainly focus on achieving the correct pitch by adjusting the knobs on the headstock for each string. The pitch of every string will be in tune with the frequency of an A440 fork of tuning. Only the A string will be in tune with the frequency of a tuning fork at concert / 440 pitch. All other strings are tuned relative to the A string. Turn the tuning keys to adjust the string. tightening the string will adjust the note higher loosening the string will make the note lower.
Why does tightening a guitar string raise the pitch of the string when it's played?
It increases the frequency of the sound waves produced by by the plucked string.
What happens to the speed of a wave on a string when the frequency is doubled?
I believe that the speed will remain constant, and the new wavelength will be half of the original wavelength. Speed = (frequency) x (wavelength). This depends on the method used to increase the frequency. If the tension on the string is increased while maintaining the same length (like tuning up a guitar string), then the speed will increase, rather than the wavelength.
How can I repair a guitar string?
To repair a guitar string, you can replace it with a new one by loosening the tuning peg, removing the broken string, and threading the new string through the bridge and tuning peg. Then, tighten the tuning peg to tune the new string to the correct pitch.
