How are hearing tests carried out?

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.


A high frequency sound will be heard as?

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.


What is the wavelength of a sound with a frequency of 18 kHz near the high end of your hearing range?

Lambda( Wavelength) = velocity/frequency Frequency = 18 x 10^3 Hz Velocity = Speed of sound = 340m/s wavelength = 340/18x10^3 = 17/900 m


Why is lead a soundproofing material?

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.


What is the frequency range of hearing for an eleven year old?

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.
