Question

Why do larger instruments create lower frequencies than smaller instruments?

Answer 1

See below .

Explanation:

Frequency all depends upon vibration produced per second . for lets suppose you have a wire of mas 10 `Kg` and its length is 100 `m` the and its tension on it let 10 `N` The frequency produced in given by formula
`nu=1/(2l)sqrt(T/m)`
where ,
'm' is mass per unit length substituting the values we get 0.05`Hz`
which is pretty less but on the other hand if we use the wire of much lesser mass say 50`gm` and keeping all other parameters constant we get 0.77`Hz` which is comparatively much higher .
