Answer:

(A) Tightening and loosening strings change the pitch because of tension. The tension gives the string the ability to create waves.

(B) The strings of lower tones are thicker because the heavier the string the slower the waves. The slower the waves the deeper the frequency is. Same with tightening and loosening the string. The waves move slower and are smaller because the weight of the string affects its movement.

(C) When you place your fingers on the strings the pitch is heightened because you are shortening the length of the string and creating more tension.

Explanation:

(A) The tighter the string, the closer the waves are to each other because there is less room to move. The looser the string, the further and smaller the waves will be, causing the tone to become lower.

(B) It's like dropping a basketball onto a court. If you fill that basketball with oxygen it will have a higher pitch when dropped than a basketball full of cement or beans.

(C) The higher on the neck of the instrument you go the higher the pitch goes because you are shortening the wave distance.

(Sorry for the long explanation, good luck)

How do I make this Tee-Pee stronger?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
Youll have to lodge the end of the sticks in the ground, you cant do it on this surface, it will tip over easily. Do it on dirt. Also get a stronger rope and tie the top through and through very well.

What are some "obstacles", "detours" or "rest stops" that divert people from reaching their goals in the journey through life?
TiliK225 [7]

In life, almost all difficulties may be considered 'speed bumps' or some other similar word from reaching their own goals.

There are, in my opinion, three main types of obstacles, which are;

-Physical

-Mental/Emotional

-Outside (AKA Obstacles out of your control)

There are countless possible obstacles for each category, but to name a few for each;

-Physical difficulties may include an injury that would prevent an activity-based to be achieved or a disease that affects your inability to move towards a goal.

-Mental/Emotional goals can include disorders, diseases, or certain negative events occurring that can hinder your ability to function normally.

-Outside obstacles can be anything from weather cancelling an event you wanted to complete to a person having to opt out of something you needed them to partake in.

In conclusion, there are countless stops that resist against human goals.

Answer the following question in 3-4 complete sentences.
djyliett [7]

Black figure painting: The original technique, used by the Greeks for creating forms/silhouettes using black paint on terracotta clay. Before firing, they would paint on a black slip (profiles only), and then fire it several times. Red figure painting: This method replaced black figure painting. It was considered superior because more detail could be added. Red figure painting is the reverse of the black figure technique. The paintings were applied to the shaped but unfired vessels after they had dried to a leathery, near-brittle texture. Hope This Helps!
