Vedclass · Answer

(B) The human ear can hear sound waves in the audible frequency range,which is between $20 \, Hz$ and $20,000 \, Hz$ $(20 \, kHz)$.$1$. $10 \, Hz$ is infrasonic (below $20 \, Hz$),so it cannot be heard.$2$. $500 \, Hz$,$1500 \, Hz$,and $12000 \, Hz$ fall within the audible range $(20 \, Hz - 20,000 \, Hz)$.$3$. $25000 \, Hz$ is ultrasonic (above $20,000 \, Hz$),so it cannot be heard.Therefore,we can hear $500 \, Hz, 1500 \, Hz,$ and $12000 \, Hz$.

Which of the following sound waves can we hear? $10 \, Hz, 500 \, Hz, 1500 \, Hz, 12000 \, Hz, 25000 \, Hz$
