Sounding board
The wayin which the weight (or thickness) is changed is particularlyinteresting. Piano strings actually are
made of wire and, therefore, have some stiffness. If we obtain the added weight needed for low notes by
increasing the wire diameter, then the bigger wires would get very stiff. Piano builders have solved this
problem by wrapping a second wire (and, for the very lowest notes, a third wire) around the original
one. This additional wire adds to the wire's weight, of course, but it does not make the wire too stiff.
All the piano strings are mounted on a strong rigid frame and pass over a bar that is called the bridge.
One end of each string is attached firmly to the frame, and the other end of the string is wrapped around
a tuning pin that is attached to the frame and can be turned to vary the tension of the string. By changing
the tension (and therefore the frquency), the string can be tuned to produce the proper pitch.
A string vibrating by itself in a room would not be heard very easily because the string's vibrations would
not be transferred effectively to the air.Apiano and all other stringed instruments improve their ability to
transfer vibrations to the air by having a sounding board.
On all these instruments. the connection between the vibrating string and the sounding board is the
bridge. As mentioned before, the string passes over the bridge so that when the string vibrates, the
bridge does also. The bridge, in turn, transfers these vibrations to the sounding board. The qualities of a
good sounding board are :
1. The board should respond equally well to the full range of frequencies at which the piano's strings
vibrate. Otherwise, some notes would sound unusually loud or soft.
2. The vibration of the sounding board itself must decay veryrapidlywhen the driving vibration is removed.
As soon as the pianist stops the vibration of a string (by releasing the key), the sound should stop, and
this "quick reaction" will happen only if the sounding board has a short damping time.
Q.9 Apiano tuner notes that the tone produced by a string is too low. In order to adjust the string to produce
the proper tone, he
(A) wraps another piece of wire around it to increase its weight.
(B) turns the tuning pin to increase the tension.
(C) turns the tuning pin to decrease the tension.
(D) moves the tuning pin so the string becomes longer.
