Smallest ‘guitar string’ to weigh atoms:
Scientists hope that “playing” a tiny guitar string, the smallest ever created, will help unravel some of the secrets of the molecular world.
The string, developed at Cornell University, US, is only 10 atoms across, a million times smaller than a normal guitar string.
Those crazy scientists. The frequency it plays at, you’re wondering?
The pitch is beyond human hearing, around 1,000 times higher than the frequencies human beings can hear.
Right.
