What is the frequency range of most people with good hearing?
The maximum human hearing range is 20Hz to 20,000Hz. 20Hz is actually more felt than heard, though a trained musician can identify the pitch at 20Hz. Only very young children and dogs can clearly hear a pitch at 20kHz, generally, and every human's ability to hear very high frequencies gradually shifts downward with age - that is normal. Even the very elderly, barring other hearing problems, can still generally hear from 40Hz to 4kHz as a minimum - about six and one-half octaves. Generally, a healthy adult can hear clearly in a range of 30-15,000Hz into their sixth decade of life.
What is a Doplar Effect?
The doplar effect is like when you are standing on the sidewalk and you hear a car coming, see it pass and then hear it leaving. As it approaches, the sound builds gradually and increases in pitch, and after it passes you, it drops quickly in pitch. This is because as the car is approaching you, each sound wave has a shorter distance to travel to your ear than the first one, and as a result they "smush" each other together, shortening the wavelength and increasing the pitch.
