Jonathan has six strings that are the same thickness and are all the same material. He cuts the strings to different lengths and pulls so that they all have the same tightness. Which string will have the highest pitch when he plucks it with his finger?

Your answer is C.

The shortest string will have the highest pitch. This is because the pitch of a sound depends on the speed of its vibrations.
