The definition of concert pitch A has, since 1939, been standardized to 440 Hertz. The difference between any two consecutive pitches on a piano is equal to the twelfth root of 2. Since middle C is nine semitones below concert pitch A, rounded to two decimal places, this is approximately equal to 440 / ((2^(1/12))^9). Rounded to two decimal places, this is equal to 261.63 Hz.

Is there a musical note with a frequency of 7.8 hertz?
Given that the A above middle C has a frequency of 440 hertz, the lowest note on a regular piano has a frequency, rounded to two decimal places, of 27.50 hertz. Taking this an octave further down gives a frequency of 13.75, too low for a human ear to hear. Descending ten semitones, to two Bs below the bottom end of a piano, gives a frequency approximately equal to 13.75/(2^(1/12)10) = 7.72 Hertz, the closest genuine note to a 7.8 hertz frequency.
The line through middle c is called?
The line through middle C is referred to as a ledger. Alternating notes that fall below C will contain another ledger line. The purpose is to let musicians know how much lower than E they are getting.

What note corresponds to a frequency of 60 hertz?
Assuming the frequency of Middle C to be 261.63 hertz, accurate to two decimal places, taking this two octaves down brings us to 65.41 hertz. Sending us down a further semitone gives us 65.41 x 1/21/12, which sends us to B, at a frequency of 61.74 hertz, accurate to two decimal places, the closest possible genuine note to a 60 hertz frequency. Effectively, this is the third B below middle C, including that which is a semitone below.
