Question
Match the string with its note. While there is a range of tensions used to tune the strings, they are roughly the same and differ by only 20%. The strings shown are from a real guitar used to play acoustical music. Masses are given in grams per meter.

It achieves this large range using both the length and mass density, H, of the strings. In a real piano, most of the strings have roughly the same tension. We shall assume that all the strings in our piano have a tension of T = 760 Newtons.

- The upper end of a 4.59-m-long steel wire is fastened to the ceiling, and a 79.0-kg object is suspended from the lower end of the wire.
