The violin
The violin produces sound when you drag your bow
across the strings, and the strings vibrate. When the
string vibrate it create a note, and each note have a
certain frequency, the higher the frequency the higher the
note. The violin has 4 strings each string plays a different
note (G3, D4, A4, E5) because each string is tightened to
a certain degree and each string has a different thickness
and each note produces a different frequency (G3=196
Hz, D4=293.7 Hz, A4=440 Hz, and E5= 659.3 Hz). The nut
and the bridge have to push on the strings at one relatively
sharp point to prevent any unclean sounds.
The Math
Every note has a unique frequency. In one octave, there
are 12 notes, with the final note having twice the
frequency of the first note. Using the note A4 (440Hz) as a
reference, the frequency of a note n half-steps away from
A4 is:
440Hz * ( 2 )n
