What is the lowest note on a viola?

The lowest note on the violin is the G below middle C. On the viola, the C below that. On the cello it is the C the octave below that, and on the double bass is the E below that. However, there are some 5 string double bass instruments that have a C string an octave below the C on the cello. (The double bass is tuned in fourths rather than fifths. Some one else will have to answer the question if the 5 string double bass is tuned C then E or C then G.)

how many strings do sting instruments usually have?

String instruments usually have anywhere from 1 to 12 strings, depending on the specific instrument. Here are the typical numbers of strings for some common string instruments: Violin: The violin has four strings tuned to the pitches G, D, A, and E. Viola: The viola also has four strings, but they are tuned to the pitches C, G, D, and A. The viola is slightly larger than the violin and has a lower range. Cello: The cello has four strings as well, but they are tuned one octave lower than the viola: C, G, D, and A. The cello is larger than both the violin and viola and produces a deeper and richer sound. Double Bass: The double bass typically has either four strings or five strings. The standard tuning for the four-string double bass is E, A, D, and G, similar to the lowest four strings of a guitar. Some double basses, especially those used in orchestras, may have a low C extension, adding a fifth string tuned to C. Guitar: Guitars can have six strings or twelve strings. The standard six-string guitar is tuned to E, A, D, G, B, and E, from low to high. Twelve-string guitars have double strings for each note, creating a fuller and richer sound. Please note that these are general guidelines, and there may be variations or exceptions for specific types of string instruments.

What is the difference between the cello and the violin?

The Violin is the smallest instrument in the string family, it also has the highest pitch. The violin and cello are similar, both have four strings tuned in perfect 5th intervels. The violin's lowest note is the first G below middle C and the cello's lowest note is 2 octaves below middle C. Both instruments can be played with a bow or plucked by the strings. Different bows and strings are used to play the instruments. For example the cello bow is much thicker than the violin bow. Cello has a range comparable to a tenor, and violin has a range comparable to a soprano and is the closest instrument to the human voice. A Violin is more portable, however a cello can also be transported. Depending on the size and quality a violin and a cello can cost about the same, but usually a cello and its accessories are a bit more. For example, a really nice cello would cost more than a violin of the same quality because it costs more to make.
