Basically No difference at all. It only in the application that differences become apparent and useful.

In practice Sonar uses high frequencies - which are still sound - because it allows resolving smaller and smaller objects and details as the frequency increases.

You can use vocal sounds in the same way. Just ask a blind person.

Thus, they are essential for talking and producing vocal sounds.


How is each sounds produced?

Sounds are produced when air is pushed out from the lungs through the vocal cords, causing them to vibrate and create different frequencies. The vibration of the vocal cords then resonates in the throat, mouth, and nasal cavities, which shapes the sound into different tones and pitches. The movements of the tongue, lips, and jaw further modify the sound to produce different speech sounds.
