The musical scale is logarithmic and that the highest note on a piano is

Diffraction
phenomenon depends
significantly on the
ratio of the wavelength
of the sound to the size
of the obstacle. The
longer the wavelength
the stronger the sound
diffraction. Diffraction
effect happens to the
sound transmitted
through openings as
well.
