String vibration refers to the oscillation or movement of a string when it is plucked, struck, or otherwise excited. This phenomenon is fundamental in musical instruments, such as guitars, violins, and pianos, where the string's vibrations produce sound. When a string is set into motion, it vibrates at specific frequencies determined by several factors, including: 1. **Length of the string**: Longer strings generally produce lower frequencies, while shorter strings produce higher frequencies.
