On a guitar, the lowest toned string is usually strung to the E note, which produces sound at 82.4 82.4 Hz. The diameter of E gu
itar strings is typically 0.0500 0.0500 in and the scale length between the bridge and nut (the effective length of the string) is 25.5 25.5 in. Various musical acts tune their E strings down to produce a "heavier" sound or to better fit the vocal range of the singer. As a guitarist you want to detune the E on your guitar to A# ( 58.3 58.3 Hz). If you were to maintain the same tension in the string as with the E string, what diameter of string would you need to purchase to produce the desired note? Assume all strings available to you are made of the same material.
