Human hearing is thought to be sensitive to sound frequencies (corresponding to musical pitch) ranging from 20 to 20,000 hertz. In round numbers, that's 20 khz of bandwidth. The pitch of sound attainable by ultrasonic horns, however, extends many, many times beyond the frequencies detectable by the human ear. It is not uncommon for industrial horns to emit sounds of several mhz in pitch -- perhaps 500 times higher than can be heard. Thus humans can directly perceive only a fraction of 1% of pitches that can be produced by existing instruments.
The frequency range for human audible sound is 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.
-- The highest frequency of sound audible to the human ear is of the order of 20,000 Hz.-- The lowest frequency of light visible to the human eye is of the order of 375,000,000,000,000 Hz.
All matter (objects) produce sound when they vibrate with the frequency of audible range.Human ears can hear the sound with frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz (20000 Hertz).So if any object vibrates within the audible range it will produce audible sound. Frequency also denotes the pitch of the sound.If the matter or object vibrates in vacuum, then the sound waves is not heard as it needs a medium for propagation of the waves.The loudness of the sound depends on the Energy in the waves.
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.
The frequency of vibrating pendulum lies below the audible range (20 Hz to 20,000 Hz)
An audio frequency is a frequency, or range of frequencies, of audible sound waves.
If the frequency of a sound wave lies between 20Hz and 20KiloHertz then it is audible by most people.
The frequency range for human audible sound is 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.
The lowest frequency of visible light ... assume wavelength = 750 nm ...is around 400,000 GHz.The highest frequency of audible sound is around 20 KHz.So the smallest ratio ... lowest frequency of light to highest frequency of sound ...is 4 x 1014/2 x 104 = 20 billion .

Ultrasound cannot be heard as it has a higher frequency than audible sound, with a frequency above 20000Hz.

Difference is in their frequency, audible sound waves is between 12 Hz and 20,000 Hz, Ultrasound waves is any sound that has a frequency beyond the 20,000 Hz limit
The cycles per second go up. If it's audible sound the pitch goes up.
The frequencies (cycles per second) of the audible vibrations are between 20 Hz and 20000 Hz.
