While dogs can hear high frequency sounds, BATS may hold the record. They use high frequency sound for navigation.
actually there are 2. dolphins and mice
Beluga Whale

and bats

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.


What animal hear the lowest frequency?

A Pigeon has the lowest hearing Frequency at .1 Hz.


What name is given to the sounds which a cat can hear but a human cannot?

Sound with a frequency lower than about 20 cycles per second, called infrasonic sound. Sound with a frequency higher than about 20,000 cycles per second, called ultrasonic sound. Only those with excellent hearing can perceive sound at these extremes. As we age and as our hearing is damaged by exposure to loud sounds, the frequency range of hearing is reduced. Some animals can hear sounds above and below the range of humans.


What is the loudest sound a human can hear?

20,000 Hz (20kHz) is the (ideal) highest FREQUENCY that a healthy human ear can hear. With regard to loud sounds, a sound LEVEL of 120 decibel (dB) causes pain, and a level of 140 dB causes deafness.


What is an apparent change in frequency of a sound source that moves relative to an observer?

The Doppler Effect. It's a change in frequency cause by the motion of the sound source, the motion of the listener, or both. As a source of sound approaches, observers hear a higher frequency. When the sound source moves away, observers hear a lower frequency. This effect was discovered by an Austrian scientist named Christian Doppler. Example: An ambulance siren. As the ambulance approaches a stationary observer, the frequency seems to increase. As the ambulance moves farther away, the loudness of the siren seems to decrease.

The highest frequency that a human can hear is typically around 20,000 hertz (Hz).


The highest frequency that humans can hear is approximately what?

The highest frequency that humans can hear is around 20,000 Hz. Beyond this frequency, it becomes inaudible to most people.


What is the highest frequency sound wave an adult can hear?

An adult can hear up to 10 kHz, but it depends always on the level this frequency has. The sensitivity of hearing goes slowly down with age. If there is no level given in the question. the answer is really useless.


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.


Find the frequency of a sound wave that has a wavelength of 1.5 meter. Could you hear this sound?

To find the frequency, use the formula: frequency = speed of sound / wavelength. Assuming the speed of sound is 343 m/s, the frequency of the sound wave would be approximately 229 Hz. Yes, this frequency is within the audible range for humans, so you would be able to hear this sound.


What is determined by sound waves frequency?

The sound that you hear.


Ultrasound waves are waves with a frequency higher than ahuman can hear state the highest frequency that human can hear?

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.


Who can hear the highest frequency sounds?

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.
