The sound which is over 20 000 Hz is called ultrasonic. It can't be heard by human ears. It can be heard and produce by some of the animals and mammals e.g.-Dolphin,bat etc. The sound which is less then 20 Hz is called infrasonic. The sound is divided into these two parts.

∙ 15y agoIt's ultrasound, not audible to humans.

Sound waves with frequencies higher than 20000 Hz are referred to as subsonic waves?
for this answer it's false i made a 90 on this test :)
What is an ultrasonic wave?
Ultrasonic waves are sound waves with frequencies higher than what humans can hear. Sound waves have frequencies of about 20,000 to 100,000.
What is ultrasonic sound?
frequencies higher than 20 kHz are called ultra sound or ultra sonic sound.
Objects that vibrate with a high frequency produce sounds with a high what?
Higher frequencies produce the perception of higher pitch sound. A woman's voice generally contains sounds with higher frequencies than a man's voice contains. An infant's voice contains higher frequencies than an adult's voice does.
Are sound waves with frequencies higher than 20 000 Hz referred to as subsonic waves?
No. Such sounds are suprsonic sounds.

What are sound waves with frequencies above the normal human range of hearing?
Sound waves with frequencies above the normal human range of hearing are called ultrasoundUltrasoundUltrasonic for frequencies higher than a human can hear, and infrasonic for those frequencies below the human threshold of hearing.

No. Such sounds are suprsonic sounds.
What kind of sounds have frequencies higher than 20000 Hz?
Ultrasonic. Or do you mean what causes them : all types of electrical machinery including TV sets, humming birds, mice (singing) insects.
Do all animals hear the same frequencies of sound as human do?
Some animals can hear higher frequencies than humans can. This is why animals can hear things like dog whistles, and we can't hear them. In all, animals can hear differently than humans in the way that they can hear more. Some animals can hear lower frequencies than humans can. Elephants can hear much lower frequencies than humans.
What waves the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency?
I'll answer your question for a variety of waves. For sound waves, higher pitch sounds have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For water waves, the slowest moving waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For seismic waves, S waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than P waves. For electromagnetic waves, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than, say, visible light. For quantum mechanical, de Broglie waves, particles with classical analogues of momentum have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than individual particles.
What sounds have hertz higher than 20000?
Such sound is called ULTRASOUND. 20,000 Hz (20 kHz) is the approximate upper limit for the human ear.
Does the whistle of a tea kettle have greater frequency than a drum beat?
Yes it does. Higher pitched sounds have higher frequencies than lower pitched sounds.
