Question

The sounds with frequencies smaller than 20 Hz are called _____.

  1. Ultrasound
  2. Infrasound
  3. Super sound
  4. Supersonic sound

hintHint:

Infrasound has frequencies less than 20Hz.

The correct answer is: Infrasound


    • Sounds with frequencies less than 20Hz are called infrasound.
    • Infrasound is not perceivable by an average human ear.
    • So, the correct option is b.

    • Sounds with frequencies 20Hz to 20kHz are called audible frequencies.
    • Sounds with frequencies more than 20Khz are called ultrasound.
