  1. The note is raised by one octave compared to the sound of the full string length.

    Explanation

    The relationship between frequency and wavelength is given by the formula: frequency = c / wavelength i.e. the frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength.  So, if the (wave)length is halved, the frequency, or note, will double.
