Frequency, referring to sound, is the amount of complete waves every second that produce sound.

For example: High pitched sounds, like the sound that whistles make, have a high frequency (lots of waves per second). And Low pitched sounds like the sound that a subwoofer makes have a low frequency (Not so many waves per second)

The average human can hear from 20hz (cycles per second) up to around 20,000hz (cycles per second)
