Question 1: Which string instrument is played with a bow?
Guitar
Violin
Banjo
The instrument played with a bow is the violin. A violin makes sound when a bow is moved across its strings. Guitars and banjos are usually played by plucking or strumming the strings with fingers or a pick.
Correct Answer: Violin
Question 2: What material are violin strings traditionally made of?
Rubber
Gut
Plastic
Traditionally, violin strings are made of gut, which comes from sheep intestines. Gut strings were used for many centuries before modern materials existed. They produce a warm, rich sound that many players still enjoy today. Rubber and plastic are not traditional materials for violin strings.
Correct Answer: Gut
Question 3: Which part of the violin produces the sound?
Neck
Scroll
Vibrating strings
The part of the violin that actually produces the sound is the vibrating strings. When the strings are bowed or plucked, they vibrate and create sound waves. These vibrations then travel through the body of the violin, making the sound louder. The neck and scroll mainly help hold and support the strings but do not create the sound themselves.
Correct Answer: Vibrating strings
