It's called the POST confirmation, or Power On Self-Test confirmation. It tells you that the computer completed a check-up of itselft and everything is ok to proceed to load the operating system. If for example you are missing a key element to the computer such as they keyboard, memmory, or a hard disk, it will beep differently to let you know. Surprisingly, a missing monitor will not activate this feauture, go figure. The computer is also testing that it has a speaker by making it sound so it serves a double purpose.

How many hertz is a alarm bell?

Different alarm bells have different frequencies. It seems to us that an alarm sounder could be constructed to sound at any desired frequency between 20 Hz and 20 KHz. Outside of that range, it would have little value as an alarm, because nobody could hear it.

Is there a limitation in computers to all?

Yes. there are limitations to computers. A computer cannot think, it cannot produce true random numbers, it can be predicted. A computer cannot see, feel, touch, hear and make it's own decisions. Outside logic, computers are pretty much only limited by the applications that it runs, and the speed of the computer. If you want a computer to calculate the distance to the moon in centimeters, all you need to do is program it to. All a computer is, is a big calculater, dealing with lots of 1's and 0's (binary code). So yes, computers have limitations. A computer could not write a book, for example, because a computer is only a machine, that takes input, and turns it into output.
