When a violin string of a certain length is set in vibration it will produce a certain pitch Under the same conditions a string half as long will produce a pitch one octave lower?

No. A string half as long as a violin string set vibrating will produce a note one octave higher. That is exactly how the violin is played. When the violinist moves his hand up and down the fingerboard, he is literally shortening the strings making the notes higher or lengthening them to make them lower. The lowest note a violin can reach is the open G string. That is the G below middle C. Pressing down on that string raises the pitch. When you tune your violin, you tune your A string first and then tune your other strings to that string.

No, a viola is not smaller than a violin. The smaller the instrument, the higher the noise. Same with the comparison with the flute and the trombone. The viola is marginally larger.
