Well, the vibrations from the strings would have more room to vibrate in the body, thus producing a deeper sound.

How can you change the length of a vibration string?
Moving your finger along the string will alter the length and the pitch of the sound produced.
What is a definition of scale of guitar?
The 'scale' of a guitar refers to the average string length between the bridge and the nut of the guitar (this is the average length because intonation at the bridge means that not all the strings are identical in length from nut to bridge).
How is math used in playing guitar?
The sounds made by guitar strings are a result of them vibrating as sine curves between the bridge and the fret that is just in front of your finger. The frequency of the string's vibration depends on its length which is altered by moving your fingers. The placement of the frets is such that the length of the string is halved at the 12th fret giving an octave and, if you have a long-necked lead guitar, it is quartered at the 24th. In between, the frets are arranged so that the vibration modes of the strings go through the scale.
How do you get different notes from a string on a guitar?
By placing a finger on a fret along the neck of the guitar, the length of the string is changed and the note altered.
How does a straw flute work?
When you blow on the end of the straw, the two pieces of the tip vibrate together. This makes a vibration, which is necessary to make sound. But the tips don't just vibrate at any old frequency. No sir! The vibration travels down the straw, and reflects from the end. This sets up a wave in the air in the straw; the vibration will bounce back and forth between the two ends. It is this vibration that you are hearing! Changing the length of the straw (by clipping it off, or by making a straw trombone) changes the time necessary for the vibration to travel up and down the straw, and so changes the pitch. And making a hole in the straw, so it is like a real flute, lets the vibration bounce off from where the hole is, which will also change the pitch!
When you increased the length of a guitar string the pitch or vibration speed that is produce becomes?
lower
How can you change the length of the vibration?
Moving your finger along the string will alter the length and the pitch of the sound produced.
How can you change the length of a vibration string?
Moving your finger along the string will alter the length and the pitch of the sound produced.
Is it the speed or the size of the vibration that changes the pitch of a sound?
Neither. Speed of sound waves doesn't change unless there is a change in the medium (substance through which the wave moves). the size of the vibration determines how loud the sound is. the length of the vibration is what determines the pitch.
What is being changed about the vibration to change the pitch and volume on the ukulele?
The vibration is changed by either reducing the length of the string (holding it down on a fret) or changing the tension of the string.
What is the Guitar Hero guitar length?
Guitar Hero: World tour guitar length about 79,2cm
How does changing the length of the string change the vibration?
The longer the string - the slower the vibration (and lower the note produced). If you shorten the string - it vibrates faster, producing a higher-pitched note,
What does guitar have to do with science?
Acoustic, sound wave and vibration of string, harmonized of wave from differ of tension and length of the string vibrate. Science is in everything. When we explaining then it is science but when we doing it we use art.
How does a guitar get automatically not tuned?
Temperature changes and vibrations can cause strings to change in length or tuning pegs to move.
What variable controls the period of vibration of a pendulum?
Its length.
What measure the amount of particles vibration?
wave length
How do you find wave length?
the length of a wave generated by a complete vibration or time period
