What is the frequency range of audible waves?

  • 20 to 20000 Hz
  • 21000 to 24000 Hz
  • 25000 to 30000 Hz
  • 31000 to 40000 Hz
  • Correct Option: A  [ 20 to 20000 Hz ]

    Remark: The audible range of sound for human beings extends from about 20 Hz to 20000 Hz (one Hz = one cycle/s). Children under the age of five and some animals, such as dogs can hear up to 25 kHz (1 kHz = 1000 Hz). As people grow older their ears become less sensitive to higher frequencies.
