What frequency of a wave in the air can be heard as an audible sound by the human ear?
For the human ear, sound is audible in the range of 20 Hz (Hertz) to 20000 Hz. Sounds below 20 Hz are "infrasonic" and have too low a frequency to be heard; sounds above 20000 Hz are "ultrasonic" and are too high a frequency to be heard.
Describe infrasonic and ultrasonic waves and explain why humans can not hear them?
The human ear cannot detect all possible frequencies. It has evolved to detect frequencies of sounds that are the most useful to humans, and has a maximum frequency range of about 20Hz to 20kHz, which decreases as you get older, particularly at the higher end. Infrasonic describes sounds that are too low in frequency to be heard by the human ear, and ultrasonic describes sounds that are too high in frequency to be heard by the human ear. These sounds cannot be heard by the human ear because they are outside of its range of capability.
What sounds have a lower frequency than 20hz?
Sounds with a lower frequency than 20 Hz are infrasound, which include natural occurrences like earthquakes and some animal calls. These low-frequency sounds are typically felt more than heard.
How many hertz are in low frequency sound?
Low frequency sounds typically range from 20 to 250 Hz.
What is the lowest frequency for humans?
Assuming you mean the lowest frequency humans can hear, that's about 20 Hz.
What are the Example of sounds of frequency?
The frequencies of sounds that can be heard by most people are between 20 and 20,000 Hz. Sounds outside of this range are possible, but can no longer be heard by humans.
Can people hear all sounds?
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.
What frequency of waves in the air can be heard as an audible sound by the human ear?
For the human ear, sound is audible in the range of 20 Hz (Hertz) to 20000 Hz. Sounds below 20 Hz are "infrasonic" and have too low a frequency to be heard; sounds above 20000 Hz are "ultrasonic" and are too high a frequency to be heard.
Are there sounds we can not hear?
Human hearing is most effective in the range of about 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. Slightly lower frequency sounds may be heard or "felt." Some sounds outside this range can be heard by some individuals. Some animals have a wider range of hearing, such as dogs who can hear higher pitched (higher frequency) sounds.
What frequency of a wave in the air can be heard as an audible sound by the human ear?
For the human ear, sound is audible in the range of 20 Hz (Hertz) to 20000 Hz. Sounds below 20 Hz are "infrasonic" and have too low a frequency to be heard; sounds above 20000 Hz are "ultrasonic" and are too high a frequency to be heard.
What is the meaning of ultrasonic sounds?
Sounds that are a frequency that is above the range of hearing.
How high can humans hear sounds in terms of frequency range?
Humans can hear sounds within a frequency range of approximately 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.

What is audio output frequency?
Audio output frequency is that range of frequencies that can be heard. For humans, that is generally considered to be the range of 20Hz to 20kHz.
What is the frequency range of music and how does it impact the overall listening experience?
The frequency range of music refers to the range of pitches or tones that can be heard in a piece of music, typically from low to high. A wider frequency range can enhance the listening experience by providing more depth, richness, and clarity to the music. It allows for a greater variety of sounds and textures, making the music more dynamic and engaging for the listener.
Why are the sounds of vocalists heard at the front of the stage but very little off to the sides and bass sounds can be heard both in front and off to the sides?
"High frequency" sounds are more directional.
What is the range of sounds that our ears can perceive?
The range of sounds that our ears can perceive typically falls between 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. This range is known as the audible frequency range.
