  2. Mersenne's laws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mersenne's_laws

    If the tension on a string is ten lbs., it must be increased to 40 lbs. for a pitch an octave higher. [1] A string, tied at A , is kept in tension by W , a suspended weight, and two bridges, B and the movable bridge C , while D is a freely moving wheel; all allowing one to demonstrate Mersenne's laws regarding tension and length [ 1 ]

  4. Tension (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tension_(physics)

    String-like objects in relativistic theories, such as the strings used in some models of interactions between quarks, or those used in the modern string theory, also possess tension. These strings are analyzed in terms of their world sheet, and the energy is then typically proportional to the length of the string. As a result, the tension in ...

  5. Stretched tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stretched_tuning

    This makes them naturally resistant to being bent, adding to the effect of string tension in returning a given part of the string toward its resting position; the result is a comparatively higher frequency of vibration of wound strings. Since rigidity is constant, its effect is greater for shorter wavelengths, i.e. in higher harmonics.

    One end is pierced for the string; the other is squared off to fit in a tuning lever socket. The middle section, which would pass through the wood, is tapered. A variety of methods are used to tune different stringed instruments. Most change the pitch produced when the string is played by adjusting the tension of the strings.

    Wilson said he spoke to Rodgers at halftime during the team's Week 1 win over the Buffalo Bills. The two hugged and expressed their love for one another. Rodgers then apologized for getting hurt.

  8. String vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_vibration

    Vibration, standing waves in a string. The fundamental and the first 5 overtones in the harmonic series. A vibration in a string is a wave. Resonance causes a vibrating string to produce a sound with constant frequency, i.e. constant pitch. If the length or tension of the string is correctly adjusted, the sound produced is a musical tone.
