What happens when a guitar string makes a sound is that the string vibrates and hit radar waves and bounces back on to the string to make a audioble sound for the human ear. that is why electric Guitars are plugged into speakers to make the sound louder for the audience to hear. the speaker enhances the sound

It vibrates up the neck, the vibration of the string goes up almost like a pot hole as all the frets aren't the same height otherwise the guitar wouldn't sound proper.

The string or strings vibrate; this in turn makes the air vibrate. The vibrations are propagated through the air as sound.

What does the loudness and the pitch of a guitar depend on?

Loudness for an acoustic guitar depends on how hard you pluck the string. Loudness for an electric guitar depends on how loud the speaker setting is. Pitch depends on which string you pluck, and which fret, if any, you are fingering. The tighter the string, the higher the pitch, in general. The shorter the section that is allowed to vibrate, the higher the pitch of that string.
