Hi,
Say there was a situation in which two strings are joined together, each with respective impedances Z1 and Z2, held under a tension T.
I was wondering about the functional dependence of the impedance on the diameter of the strings.
Thanks

Try to get the equation defining ##Z## (impedance) in terms of the tension ##T## and the mass density ##\rho##. From there you should be able to determine the functional dependence on diameter.
