Which string of guitar vibrates fastest?
The string which is in the lowest position. The thin E string.
How can you change the pitch produced by a vibrating string?
To raise the pitch (frequency), put more tension on one end of the string. To lower the pitch, put less tension on one end of the string. For instance, on a guitar, tighten the string for a higher pitch. Loosen the string for a lower pitch. Additionally, if you have a guitar string already mounted and tensioned. You may place your finger in the middle of the string, and the pitch will go up one octave. Each time you halve a tensioned string, it produces a pitch one octave higher.
The standard metric unit for length?
it means what's the unit you use to measure distance or length.Eg, you have a piece of string and you want to measure it. You take the ruler and you simply measure it.

Why are the strings in a guitar of varying thickness?
The thickness of a guitar string affects the pitch produced by it. The thicker a string is, the deeper the tone. However, the reason that the pitch becomes higher when a fret is pressed down on the string is because the metal of the fret is stopping all vibrations beyond that fret, thus making the string "shorter." You might be talking about the gauge of a string. Strings have different gauges to better fit the preferences of the guitarist. The higher the gauge, the harder it is to break that string. However, a higher gauge makes the string harder to play and may hurt the fingers of newer guitarists.
