The human ear can perceive frequencies ranging from about 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. This range is known as the audible frequency range. Below 20 Hz is infrasound, and above 20,000 Hz is ultrasound, which humans cannot hear.
The human ear is less sensitive to low frequencies compared to mid-range frequencies. Below 100 Hz, the ear requires higher sound pressure levels to be perceived as equally loud as sounds in the mid-frequency range. This is because the ear is designed to be most sensitive to frequencies between 2,000 and 5,000 Hz, which is where human speech falls.
The typical range of audible beat frequencies for the human ear is between 1 and 20 Hz. These beat frequencies are created when two sound waves with similar frequencies slightly differ and interfere with each other, producing a perceived pulsation in the overall sound.
Frequencies higher pitched than 200Hz range from 201Hz upwards. This includes frequencies like 300Hz, 500Hz, 1000Hz (1kHz), and beyond. The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch perceived by the human ear.
The audio range of a sound wave refers to the frequencies within the range of human hearing, typically around 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. This range encompasses the frequencies that the human ear is capable of perceiving, with lower frequencies perceived as bass and higher frequencies perceived as treble. Audio equipment such as speakers and headphones are designed to reproduce sound within this range effectively.
The perceived loudness of a sound is influenced by its frequency due to the way the human ear responds to different frequencies. Generally, the human ear is most sensitive to frequencies around 1-5 kHz, with sounds in this range perceived as louder at lower intensity levels compared to other frequencies. This phenomenon is known as equal loudness contours.

Pitch tone refers to the perceived frequency of a sound. It is how high or low a sound is perceived to be by the human ear. Sounds with higher frequencies are perceived as higher in pitch, while sounds with lower frequencies are perceived as lower in pitch.
Frequencies higher pitched than 200Hz range from 201Hz upwards. This includes frequencies like 300Hz, 500Hz, 1000Hz (1kHz), and beyond. The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch perceived by the human ear.

Loudness refers to the perceived intensity or volume of sound, while frequency relates to the pitch of sound waves. The ear perceives different frequencies based on the vibrations of the sound waves, with higher frequencies perceived as higher pitches and lower frequencies perceived as lower pitches. Loudness is influenced by the amplitude of sound waves, with greater amplitude resulting in louder sounds.
Infrasonic
No, the amplitude of a sound wave determines its intensity, not its perceived loudness. Loudness is subjective and depends on the sensitivity of the human ear to different frequencies at different sound pressure levels.
