Question #13
Mariah learned in science class that sound is made from vibrations. When an object vibrates
more quickly, it produces a higher-pitched sound.
Mariah designed an investigation using a guitar. The strings on a guitar each have a different
thickness. Mariah labeled the strings from 1 to 5, making the thinnest string #1 and the
thickest string #5. Then she plucked each string on the guitar and wrote down the number of
the strings in order from lowest pitch to highest pitch.
Investigation of String Thickness & Pitch
Lowest Pitch
String #5
(thickest)
Highest Pitch
String #4
String #3
String #2
String #1
(thinnest)
Based on her data, Mariah could conclude that string #1
A. does not vibrate.
