In a time signature of four-four, the strongest beat is the first beat.
In a 4/4 time signature, also known as common time, there are four beats per measure. The top number, 4, represents the number of beats per measure, and the bottom number, which is also 4, represents the note value that receives one beat (in this case, the quarter note).
In 4/4 time, the first beat is typically the strongest and emphasized more than the others. So, in response to your question, the strongest beat in a 4/4 time signature is the first beat.
