Violins and guitars are both stringed instruments.
Violins and guitars are both stringed instruments.
The correct option is A True
- In concerts and musical shows, we see a combination of instruments that produce beautiful music. Each of these instruments transmits specific vibrations in the air to produce music.
- The waveforms produced are regular and have a definite pattern.
- Musical instruments are of two main categories.
A. Stringed instruments
B. Percussion or membrane instruments
4. Musical instruments like sitar, guitar, and violin have tight strings stretched between two fixed points.
5. When the strings are struck, sounds of different frequencies are produced. The vibrations travel to the air column in the soundbox, which amplifies and enriches the sound produced.
6. By tightening the string, the quality of sound can be changed. A short and tight string gives a high note.
7. Thus, the pitch of the note produced by any stringed instrument depends on the length, mass, and tension (or tightness) of the string.
8. Though the violin and guitar are both stringed instruments, there is a difference in the way each is played.
9. The violin is played by drawing a bow (wooden stick) across the strings, which are four in number.
10. On the other hand, guitars consist of six strings, and vibrations are produced by plucking the strings. Besides the usual acoustic guitars, electric guitars are commonly used these days.
Hence, the given statement is True
