Infrasound waves are sound waves with frequencies below the audible range for humans, typically below 20 Hz. Ultrasound waves are sound waves with frequencies higher than the audible range, typically above 20,000 Hz. Both types of waves are used in various applications, such as infrasound for communication among elephants and ultrasound for medical imaging.
What else can I help you with?
What are sound waves that are too low to hear?
Sound waves that are too low to hear are referred to as infrasound. These waves have frequencies below the threshold of human hearing, typically below 20 Hz. Even though we cannot hear them, infrasound waves can still have effects on humans and animals.
What is something you cant see touch or feel but you can hear it?
Sound. Sound waves are vibrations that travel through a medium such as air and can be heard by our ears.
Why cant you hear ultra sonic sound?
Humans cannot hear ultrasonic sound because our ears are not sensitive enough to detect frequencies above 20,000 Hz, which is the upper limit of human hearing. Ultrasonic sound waves have a frequency higher than 20,000 Hz, making them outside our audible range.
Do sound waves exist even if you can't hear them?
Yes, sound waves exist which are not audible to the human ear. Humans can hear sound waves having frequency between 20 - 20,000 Hz. Other all frequencies lie outside our hearing range and are called ultrasonic or supersonic waves.
Why cant you hear a sound behind a closed door?
Sound waves need a medium, like air, to travel through. When a door is closed, it blocks the movement of sound waves, preventing them from reaching your ears. This creates a barrier that reduces the transmission of sound and makes it difficult for you to hear noises from behind the closed door.
Do sound waves stop when losing hearing?
in a way, but there are still some there, humans just cant hear them.
What do you understand by following terms-infrasonic waves?
Sound waves at frequencies lower than humans can hear.
What can you hear but can not see?
Sound waves

Why cant we hear each other on the moon?
The Moon has no atmosphere, only vacuum. There is nothing for the sound waves to travel in.
Which animal can hear ultrasonic waves?
whale can hear ultrasonic sound waves.
Do sound waves exist even if you can't hear them?
Yes, sound waves exist which are not audible to the human ear. Humans can hear sound waves having frequency between 20 - 20,000 Hz. Other all frequencies lie outside our hearing range and are called ultrasonic or supersonic waves.
How do you hear sound through the ear?
when you hear things, its really sound waves. the sound waves enter your ear, then it vibrates the ear drum.
What is the example problem of sound waves?
One example problem involving sound waves could be calculating the frequency of a sound wave given its wavelength and the speed of sound in a medium. This can be done using the formula: frequency = speed of sound / wavelength.
How does someone hear a sound?
sound waves and vibrations
