If two musical notes are an octave apart, the frequency of the higher note is twice that of the lower note. The note referred to as concert A (A4) usually has a frequency of 440 Hz (although there is some variation). What is the frequency fa6 of a note that is two octaves above (higher than) A4 in pitch? fA6 = Hz If a certain string on a viola is tuned to middle C (C4) by adjusting its tension to FCa, what should be the tension (in terms of FCA) of the string, Fc3, so that it plays a note one Fc3 = FC4 octave below middle C?

A piano tuner sounds two strings simultaneously. One has been previously tuned to vibrate at 276.0 Hz. The tuner hears 8.00 beats per second. The tuner increases the tension on the as-yet unturned string, and now when they are played together the beat frequency is 1.00 s. By what percentage did the tuner increase the tension on that string? 5.008
