What wave can be detected by the ear?

What is the frequency of a sound wave?

The frequencies (cycles per second) of the audible vibrations are between 20 Hz and 20000 Hz.


What frequency of waves 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.

"can't be heard by humans."


How many harmonics are possible in the normal hearing range 20 Hz 20000 Hz?

It depends on the fundamental frequency. If for example you wanted to find how many harmonics a 20 Hz sound has then its all the integer multiples of that frequency which are still within hearing range, i.e 20000 Hz. For 20 Hz this is 20000/20 = 1000 harmonics.


What is a sound with frequency greater than 20000 hz?

the sound would be called "ultrasound"


What sound frequencies can humans hear?

typically 20-20000 Hz - but this range will decrease with age
