    Acoustic – frequency of G −7, the lowest note sung by the singer with the deepest voice in the world, Tim Storms. His vocal cords vibrate 1 time every 5.29 seconds. 10 0: 1 hertz (Hz) 1 to 1.66 Hz: Approximate frequency of an adult human's resting heart beat: 1 Hz: 60 bpm, common tempo in music 2 Hz: 120 bpm, common tempo in music ~7.83 Hz

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_(acoustics)

    If a graph is drawn to show the function corresponding to the total sound of two strings, it can be seen that maxima and minima are no longer constant (as when a pure note is played), but change over time: when the two waves are nearly 180 degrees out of phase the maxima of one wave cancel the minima of the other, whereas when they are nearly ...

    For instance, a note vibrating at 200 Hz and a note vibrating at 300 Hz (a perfect fifth, or ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠ ratio, above 200 Hz) add together to make a wave that repeats at 100 Hz: Every ⁠ 1 / 100 ⁠ of a second, the 300 Hz wave repeats three times and the 200 Hz wave repeats twice. Note that the combined wave repeats at 100 Hz, even though ...

  6. Hertz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hertz

    Sound is a traveling longitudinal wave, which is an oscillation of pressure. Humans perceive the frequency of a sound as its pitch. Each musical note corresponds to a particular frequency. An infant's ear is able to perceive frequencies ranging from 20 Hz to 20 000 Hz; the average adult human can hear sounds between 20 Hz and 16 000 Hz. [11]

  7. Piano key frequencies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_key_frequencies

    This is a list of the fundamental frequencies in hertz (cycles per second) of the keys of a modern 88-key standard or 108-key extended piano in twelve-tone equal temperament, with the 49th key, the fifth A (called A 4), tuned to 440 Hz (referred to as A440). [1] [2] Every octave is made of twelve steps called semitones.

  8. Pitch (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_(music)

    In musical notation, the different vertical positions of notes indicate different pitches. Play top: Play bottom: Pitch is a perceptual property that allows sounds to be ordered on a frequency-related scale, [1] or more commonly, pitch is the quality that makes it possible to judge sounds as "higher" and "lower" in the sense associated with musical melodies. [2]

  9. Undertone series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undertone_series

    Undertone series on C. [1] In music, the undertone series or subharmonic series is a sequence of notes that results from inverting the intervals of the overtone series.While overtones naturally occur with the physical production of music on instruments, undertones must be produced in unusual ways.
