Why would the sound of a guitar string sound louder when attached to the body of the guitar that when plucked alone?
When mounted on an acoustic guitar the body serves as a soundboard to amplify the vibration of the strings. On a unplugged solidbody Electric Guitar you will notice that the sound is very similar to the string mounted to the workbench.
What else can I help you with?
Why does a guitar string produce a louder sound if it is plucked harder?
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 family of instruments does the Ukulele belong to?
The string family instruments and is the subset of the guitar family or a plucked lute.
Why When a banjo string is plucked hard why does it create a louder sound?
Plucking harder puts more energy into the string's movement, so it moves with a bigger amplitude, producing a louder sound.
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.
Why is a harpsichord considered a string instrument and not a percussion instrument?
A string in a harpsichord is plucked by a plectrum, not unlike a guitar pick.

Is energy of a guitar string when plucked kennetic or potential?
When a guitar string is plucked, the energy is mainly kinetic energy. The potential energy stored in the string due to its tension is converted into kinetic energy as the string vibrates back and forth, producing sound waves.
How is sound created on the guitar?
When a guitar string is plucked, it vibrates. The vibration of the string causes pressure waves in the air. The pressure waves are called "sound".
