What is the relationship between tone and frequency in sound waves?

The tone of a sound wave is determined by its frequency. Higher frequencies produce higher tones, while lower frequencies produce lower tones.


Why can't adults hear high frequency ring tones?

As humans age, the ability to hear high frequencies diminishes due to natural changes in the inner ear. This process is known as presbycusis. High frequency ring tones typically fall within the range that becomes more difficult for adults to hear as they get older, which is why they may have trouble hearing them.

What is the frequency range that humans can hear, and how does it affect our perception of sound?

The frequency range that humans can hear is typically between 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. This range allows us to perceive a wide variety of sounds, from low rumbling to high-pitched tones. Our ability to hear different frequencies affects how we perceive and interpret sounds, such as music, speech, and environmental noises.


How high or low a sound is percived?

Different animals can perceive sounds at different wavelengths. For example a dog whistle has a frequency which dogs can hear but is too high for humans. Furthermore, people's sensitivity to sound frequency changes with age. In general, ordinary range for humans is 20 to 20,000 Hz.


Why can't adults hear high frequency ring-tones?

because their ears are more developed.

How do you convert tones to cubic meter natural gas?

The tone, or frequency of sound depends on the density of the medium that it is travelling through. Without information about the composition of the natural gas, it temperature and pressure, it is not possible to work out its density and so the tone of sounds propagating through it.
