The type of whole house generator you buy depends on the size of your house. As everyone owns different sized and differently shaped houses, I suggest you consult an electrician about this matter.

Why does the cattle's ability to hear infrasonic frequencies contribute to a stampede?

The cattle's ability to hear infrasonic frequencies contributes to a stampede because these sounds are not heard by the cattle drivers and they are not able to react prior to the stampede. The continued sounds cause the cattle to keep running.


Why can dogs hear more sounds than humans?

Yes. "Dog's sense of hearing has an almost equally important role within their world. Not only do dogs have a highly developed sense of hearing that can hear a wide range of sounds but they also have the ability to pin point the exact origin of the sound, discriminate between sounds and make a accurate interpretation of the sound, and decided whether it is threatening or non-threatening. As dog's ears are able to move in different directions, it is easier for dogs to pinpoint the exact location of a sound's origin. The frequencies that dogs can perceive and hear are almost twice that of humans and they can pick up and distinguish sounds at roughly 4 times the range of humans. Dogs have specially designed inner ears that allow them to have this incredible ability and their ears operate almost like radars. Not only do dogs hear the sounds but also perceive the height and depth of the sounds that they hear. Dogs also have the ability to hear ultra high frequencies that humans cannot and many professional dog handlers and trainers use this ability to their advantage by teaching them and training them to respond to different commands given on whistles that produce ultra high frequency sounds.


How high can humans hear?

Humans can typically hear sounds within the frequency range of 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz, with the ability to hear higher frequencies diminishing with age. The upper limit of human hearing varies among individuals but generally decreases with age. Sounds above 20,000 Hz are considered ultrasonic and are usually inaudible to humans.


How does the cicada protect itself from enemies?

Cicadas do not really defend themselves and have many predators that can eat them. They may protect themselves by predator satiation which means they emerge all at once and predators are not able to eat them all.


Can animals hear the same sounds?

The sounds animals can hear is based on the frequency that the certain animal can hear. For example, dog's can hear at much higher frequencies then humans can, so if a sound is made that is above our capability of hearing, we will not hear the sound, but the dog will.

How far away can a human hear sounds?

The distance at which a human can hear sounds depends on various factors such as the volume of the sound, the environment, and the individual's hearing ability. Generally, a human can hear sounds from a distance of up to 20 feet away in a quiet environment. However, this distance can vary significantly in different situations.
