Pitch (high and low)
The Doppler effect will cause a listener to hear a higher frequency when the source of the sound is moving towards the listener. This causes the sound waves to be compressed, resulting in a higher perceived frequency.
The highest frequency that humans can hear is around 20,000 Hz. Beyond this frequency, it becomes inaudible to most people.
The highest frequency that a human can hear is around 20,000 Hz, or 20 kHz. Beyond this frequency, sounds are considered to be ultrasound, which is not detectable by the human ear.
The Doppler effect alters how we hear sound by changing the pitch or frequency of the sound wave when the source of the sound is moving towards or away from us. If the source is approaching, the frequency increases, resulting in a higher pitch; if it is moving away, the frequency decreases, leading to a lower pitch.
Young children and certain animals such as dolphins, bats, and some dogs have the ability to hear the highest frequency sounds. As we age, our ability to hear high frequencies diminishes.
No. There is a frequency range in which people can hear. Very high frequency or low frequency sounds are inaudible to us, but can be heard by some other creatures, like dogs for example.

Scientists discovered in 2001 that people with a particular gene mutation gradually lose their abilities to hear low-frequency sounds.

The highest frequency that humans can hear is typically around 20,000 Hz.
The maximum frequency that humans can hear is typically around 20,000 Hz.
The highest frequency that a human can hear is typically around 20,000 hertz (Hz).
The highest frequency that humans can hear is around 20,000 Hz. Beyond this frequency, it becomes inaudible to most people.
The maximum frequency in hertz that a human can hear is typically around 20,000 Hz.
The highest frequency that a human can hear is around 20,000 Hz, or 20 kHz. Beyond this frequency, sounds are considered to be ultrasound, which is not detectable by the human ear.

As an ambulance approaches, the sound waves it produces are compressed due to its motion towards you, resulting in a higher frequency, known as the Doppler effect. This causes the siren's pitch to sound higher as it approaches and then lower as it moves away. While you may perceive a higher frequency as it comes closer, the actual frequency of the siren remains constant, only altered in perception due to relative motion. Thus, the frequency you hear differs from the frequency being produced because of this change in sound wave compression.
