Describe infrasonic and ultrasonic waves and explain why humans can not hear them?
The human ear cannot detect all possible frequencies. It has evolved to detect frequencies of sounds that are the most useful to humans, and has a maximum frequency range of about 20Hz to 20kHz, which decreases as you get older, particularly at the higher end. Infrasonic describes sounds that are too low in frequency to be heard by the human ear, and ultrasonic describes sounds that are too high in frequency to be heard by the human ear. These sounds cannot be heard by the human ear because they are outside of its range of capability.
What is inaudible and audible sounds in detail?
Audible sounds - are those that fall within the scope of human hearing. These are sounds that are typically in the frequency range of 50 Hz to 20 kHz. Frequencies below 50 Hz are classed as ULF (ultra-low frequency) sounds. Those above 20kHz are labelled as ultrasonic sounds.
What are other things that vibrate to produce sounds?
Other things that vibrate to produce sounds include washing machines, toys and pagers
What frequency of a wave in the air can be heard as an audible sound by the human ear?
For the human ear, sound is audible in the range of 20 Hz (Hertz) to 20000 Hz. Sounds below 20 Hz are "infrasonic" and have too low a frequency to be heard; sounds above 20000 Hz are "ultrasonic" and are too high a frequency to be heard.
Do loud speakers produce ultrasonic sounds?
Yes
Do giraffes produce ultrasound to communitate?
Actually, Giraffes communicate using infrasonic sounds, i.e. sounds with a frequency BELOW the range of human hearing. Ultrasound would be ABOVE the human hearing range.Sources: Wikipedia
Humans produce the sounds of language by?
Thé human's larynx (voicebox) vibrates to produce sound
Can humans hear the sonic range?
The Human hearing range IS the sonic range. Sounds which fall under the ultrasonic range are sounds which emit a higher frequency then we can hear (ie. dogs hear within this range). Infrasonic sounds emit lower frequencies then we can hear. The human hearing range or 'Sonic' range is between 16- 20 000 Hz, though changes with age
Does speech recognition software enables a computer to produce human sounds?
No.
Who animal can make the widest range of sound?
There are a great number of animals that can produce a very wide range of sounds and noises. Humans are one of them.
Does a piano make sounds with a large range of frequencies?
A typical piano has a range of at least 7 octaves; for comparison, the range of human hearing is about 10 octaves.
How do airplanes produce sounds?
They produce sounds by their engines

Is the didgeridoo pitched?
Not in the typical western sense. You wouldn't seek an A flat Didge, for example. There are larger ones with over-all deeper sounds, and smaller ones with higher sounds, and a skillful player can produce sounds with a thrilling range of sounds and effects.
What sounds do weak vibrations produce?
Weak vibrations produce soft or quieter sounds.
What are ultrasonic sounds?
Ultrasonic sounds are sounds that are above our hearing range.
How are various musical notes produced?
Music instruments are categorized into families according to the method they produce sounds. String instruments produce sounds by plucking or bowing strings. Woodwind and brass instruments produce sounds by blowing air into it. Instruments in the percussion family produce sounds by striking them.
