Abstract
The coefficient of thermal expansion of electric guitar string material was obtained by its fundamental frequency measurement. The method of using a guitar tuner is very simple and has better advantage compared to other possible methods of determining the coefficient of thermal expansion. The obtained results and experiment could be useful as educational illustration material in subjects such as Strength and Elasticity or Technical Mechanics.
