Shorter the wavelength higher the frequency so naturally high frequency soundwaves are short
Do all animals hear the same?
Hello again, The sounds are heard not just by their tones., but for some they feel the vibrations on the ground and some have the accute sense of smell. it would take me a long time to explain this...go to the local Library and read about it from raptors to todays eagles to the thrree toed sloth. Read listen and learn.
Do high frequency sound waves have a higher or lower pitch than low frequency sound wave?
Yes! All sound waves, regardless of pitch move at the same speed provided they are in the same medium. Differences in frequency cause the sound to be perceived as higher or lower. A high pitched sound has a higher frequency and shorter wavelength while low pitched sounds have lower frequencies and longer wavelengths
Why can't adults hear high frequency ring tones?
Bacause they can't
Why cant humans hear sounds of dolphins?

What is the highest frequency that can be detected by dogs?

Effect of high frequency sounds in birds?

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.
How high or low a sound is percived?
Different animals can perceive sounds at different wavelengths. For example a dog whistle has a frequency which dogs can hear but is too high for humans. Furthermore, people's sensitivity to sound frequency changes with age. In general, ordinary range for humans is 20 to 20,000 Hz.
Audible sounds dogs hear but humans cant?
As a hunter, dogs have evolved to have better hearing than humans. They can even hear voles/lemmings scurrying round under the snow!!
Why cant you hear a dog whistle?
