Low frequency sounds are detected in the ear by the hair cells located in the cochlea, specifically in the apex or helicotrema region. These hair cells are responsible for converting sound vibrations into electrical signals that are then transmitted to the brain via the auditory nerve.
The human ear can generally detect sounds with frequencies as low as 20 Hz. Below this frequency, the sound may be felt rather than heard.
The sensitivity of the human ear ranges from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Under ideal conditions in a laboratory, humans have detected sounds as low as 12 Hz.
No, a low pitched note has a low frequency. The pitch of a sound is determined by its frequency, with low frequency sounds corresponding to low pitched notes and high frequency sounds corresponding to high pitched notes.
High frequency sounds include a whistle, a bird chirping, or a ringing phone. Low frequency sounds include thunder, a bass guitar, or a large drum.
High-pitched sounds have a higher frequency compared to low-pitched sounds.
The human ear can generally detect sounds with frequencies as low as 20 Hz. Below this frequency, the sound may be felt rather than heard.
The sensitivity of the human ear ranges from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Under ideal conditions in a laboratory, humans have detected sounds as low as 12 Hz.
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.
No, a low pitched note has a low frequency. The pitch of a sound is determined by its frequency, with low frequency sounds corresponding to low pitched notes and high frequency sounds corresponding to high pitched notes.
High frequency sounds include a whistle, a bird chirping, or a ringing phone. Low frequency sounds include thunder, a bass guitar, or a large drum.
Low frequency = low pitch = long waves
High-pitched sounds have a higher frequency compared to low-pitched sounds.
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.
It varies with individuals of course, but 19-21 is very common
Low frequency sounds typically range from 20 to 250 Hz.
No, high pitch means high frequency.
Pitch is determined by sound wave frequency; how fast something is vibrating. High-pitched sounds are higher frequency meaning they are vibrating faster. Low pitch means they are vibrating slower.
