Which type of sound wave can not be detected by humans?
Humans can hear with in a range of 20 Hz - 20,000 Hz. Below 20 Hz is infrasound, and above 20,000 Hz (20 kHz) is ultrasound.
What are the below audible frequency sounds?
Sounds below human's lowest audible frequency of 20Hz are known as Infrasound.
What is infrasound wave?
A infrasonic sound has a frequency - under 20 kHz. See the link below.
What are the normal results of endorectal ultrasound?
Normal results after an endorectal ultrasound are normal, healthy tissues
What does the pelvic ultrasound reveal about internal organs?
Ultrasound has the ability to detect the size and shape of pelvic organs, such as the bladder, and is useful in evaluating the cause of bladder dysfunction.
Is infrasound used to clean glassware?
No, but you can use ultrasound to clean glassware.
What is the opposite of the ultrasound?
The opposite of ultrasound (above the human hearing range) is infrasound (below the human hearing range).
What is the difference between infrasound and ultrasound?
Ultrasound is above 18 kilohertz. Infrasound is below 20 hertz.
What is the difference between infrasound and ultrasound And provide one example of how each is used?
Infrasound is always smaller or lighter than ultrasound. For example: infrasound can be the sound of a paper clip hitting the floor, and ultrasound can be the sound of two planets colliding.
What is a similarity between infrasound and ultrasound?
"Sound" is a mechanical wave traveling through a medium. Ultrasound is sound, but its frequency is higher than humans can hear.
How acoustics is related to physics?
Acoustics is the study of sound, ultrasound and infrasound, that is, waves in gases, liquids, and solids.
What is the difference between infra sound and ultrasound?
Infrasound has a frequency below normal hearing. Ultrasound waves have a frequency above the normal range of human hearing.
How ultrasound and infrasound differ from normal sound?
Sonic infrasound is a sound too low for humans to hear, below 20 Hertz. Ultrasound is a sound too high for humans to hear, above 20,000 Hertz.
Which is longerthe wavelength of infrasound or the wavelength of ultrasound?
I beg your pardon? Sound is not a person, let alone a living being. >:-(
What do you call a sound that you cannot hear?
Sound too low in frequency to hear (~<20Hz) is called infrasound. Sound too high infrequency to hear (~>20kHz) is called ultrasound.
What frequencies can different animals hear?
Infrasound ( below the range of human hearing ) Sonic Range ( within the range ofhuman hearing ) Ultrasound ( above range of human hearing )
Is echolocation also known as infrasound?
No, infrasound is the frequency of sound that is too low for humans to hear, below 20 hertz, but is used for communicating by elephants and other animals. Echolocation is normally ultrasound, the frequency above our hearing range, higher than 20,000 hertz, and is used by bats and dolphins in echolocation.
