Physics

On a guitar, the lowest toned string is usually strung to the Enote, which produces sound at 82.4 Hz. The diameter of E guitarstrings is typically 0.0500 in and the scale length between thebridge and nut (the effective length of the string) is 25.5 in.Various musical acts tune their E strings down to produce a\"heavier\" sound or to better fit the vocal range of the singer. Asa guitarist you want to detune the E on your guitar to A# ( 58.3Hz). If you were to maintain the same tension in the string as withthe E string, what diameter of string would you need to purchase toproduce the desired note? Assume all strings available to you aremade of the same material. diameter of string: inchesUnfortunately, none of the strings in your collection have such alarge diameter. In fact, the largest diameter you possess is0.06033 in. If the tension on your existing string is denoted?before , by what fraction will you need to detune (that is, lowerthe tension) of this string to achieve the desired A# note??after?before=
