You sit opposite of the tester with a set of headphones on. The tester sends a series of low to high frequency's to the head phones and you indicate to the tester that you can hear them, with a nod or push of a button. The tester then works out what frequency's you could or could not hear to work out you hearing. The above is what i went through to get mine checked.
If the high frequency sound is within hearing range, you can hear it as a high-pitched sound. If it's out of the hearing range you can't hear it, of course.
Lambda( Wavelength) = velocity/frequency Frequency = 18 x 10^3 Hz Velocity = Speed of sound = 340m/s wavelength = 340/18x10^3 = 17/900 m
Lots of mass (very low resonant frequency) Low stiffness (very high co-incident frequency) All materials have both a resonant and co-incident frequency, at which sound is transmitted more efficiently. Materials where these frequencies occur outside of the range of hearing (20 - 20,000 Hz) are better for sound proofing. With lead, the resonant frequency is below 20Hz and the co-incident frequency is about 20,000Hz.
The range of human hearing includes frequencies from about 15 to about 18,000 cycles per second. This varies from one individual to another, especially at the higher frequencies. High frequencies usually become less audible with age.
30KHz to 50KHz is the frequency range of hearing for a tiger.
A Pigeon has the lowest hearing Frequency at .1 Hz.
The lowest hearing frequency of a horse is 55 hertz, whereas the highest would be 33,500.
Human and ant hearing capabilities are very different from each other. The hearing frequency range for an ant is said to be 1kHz.
The lowest hearing frequency of a horse is 55 hertz, whereas the highest would be 33,500.
Horses have acute hearing.

Infrasound has a frequency below normal hearing. Ultrasound waves have a frequency above the normal range of human hearing.
