That means a wave with a frequency somewhere between roughly 20 Hz and 20 KHz.
If it's not in that frequency range, then you can't hear it even if it hits you square in
the ear, so it's not 'audible'.

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.
What is the wavelength in a sound wave?
To find the wavelength, the following formula applies: λ = ν / f That in common words is: Wavelength = Wave's Speed / Wave's Frequency So, Wavelength of sound wave = Speed of sound wave / Frequency of sound wave Now, Speed of sound wave is 343 m/s, so Wavelength of sound wave = 343 m/s / Frequency of sound wave Frequency of sound waves audible to a human ear range between 20 Hz to 20 kHz. So filling the desired sound frequency in the equation above you get the desired wavelength of that sound wave.
If a wave has a low frequency how do you describe the wave length?
The frequency of a wave is not directly related to the wave length. A low frequency wave or a high frequency wave may be either long-wave or short-wave.
What is the Approximate range of audible frequencies for most humans?
HIGHEST AUDIBLE FREQUENCY IS 25Hz..WHILE THE LOWEST AUDIBLE FREQUENCY IS 15Hz
What is the quantitative relationship between frequency and wavelength?
speed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelength
How do you create a sound from frequency?
If the frequency of a sound wave lies between 20Hz and 20KiloHertz then it is audible by most people.
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 are the below audible frequency sounds?
Sounds below human's lowest audible frequency of 20Hz are known as Infrasound.
What frequency of a wave in the air can be heard as an audible sound by the human ear?

What is an audio frequency?
An audio frequency is a frequency, or range of frequencies, of audible sound waves.
What is the audible hearing frequency for frogs?
60
If a wave has a low frequency how do you describe the wave length?
The frequency of a wave is not directly related to the wave length. A low frequency wave or a high frequency wave may be either long-wave or short-wave.
What is the Approximate range of audible frequencies for most humans?
HIGHEST AUDIBLE FREQUENCY IS 25Hz..WHILE THE LOWEST AUDIBLE FREQUENCY IS 15Hz
What is the relationship between a wave frequency and its wavelength?
velocity of a wave equals wave frequency times wave length.
What is the quantitative relationship between frequency and wavelength?
speed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelength
What do you mean by stationary or standing wave?
A standing wave is a wave produced by interference between two moving waves of the same frequency (usually an original wave and its reflection) which does not move but continues to oscillate at the original frequency.
