Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Depending on the frequency at which the sound waves that produce them vibrate, sounds have a higher or lower pitch. The frequency of wave vibration determines the pitch of a sound, and if the frequency is higher, we describe the sound as harsh and having a higher pitch. The sound's pitch determines how our ears respond. The sharpness of each string gets sharper as you proceed down the guitar's six basic strings. On the other hand, the flat pitch and loud volume of car horns can be harmful to anyone's heart. Guitar hence has a higher frequency than a car horn.
