the larger the amplitude at which something vibrates = the louder the sound. so by plucking a string harder, you're increasing the amplitude of the sound waves and thus increasing the sound volume

What are the differences between medium and light guitar strings in terms of playability and sound quality?

Medium guitar strings are thicker and provide more resistance when playing, which can make them slightly harder to press down on the fretboard. However, they produce a fuller and louder sound with more sustain. Light guitar strings are thinner and easier to play, requiring less finger strength. They produce a brighter and more delicate sound with less sustain compared to medium strings.


How does an acoustic electric guitar work to produce sound?

An acoustic electric guitar works by using a built-in pickup to convert the vibrations of the strings into electrical signals. These signals are then sent to an amplifier, which amplifies the sound and projects it through speakers. This allows the guitar to produce a louder sound than a traditional acoustic guitar.


What property of the sound waves changed to produce the louder volume?

Well, the sound waves get bigger due to increase in volume, but the pitch does not changes, the waves themselves in real life get louder and therefore harder to absorb
