  2. Hearing range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearing_range

    Hearing range describes the frequency range that can be heard by humans or other animals, though it can also refer to the range of levels. The human range is commonly given as 20 to 20,000 Hz, although there is considerable variation between individuals, especially at high frequencies, and a gradual loss of sensitivity to higher frequencies ...

  3. Psychoacoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychoacoustics

    The human ear can nominally hear sounds in the range 20 to 20 000 Hz. The upper limit tends to decrease with age; most adults are unable to hear above 16 000 Hz. Under ideal laboratory conditions, the lowest frequency that has been identified as a musical tone is 12 Hz. [6] Tones between 4 and 16 Hz can be perceived via the body's sense of touch.

    ⭐ Bats use echolocation to "see" in the dark by emitting high-frequency sounds and listening to their echoes. This gives them an incredible ability to navigate their environment, locate prey ...

  5. Audio frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_frequency

    An audio frequency or audible frequency (AF) is a periodic vibration whose frequency is audible to the average human. The SI unit of frequency is the hertz (Hz). It is the property of sound that most determines pitch. [1] The generally accepted standard hearing range for humans is 20 to 20,000 Hz.

    Acoustic – the typical upper limit of adult human hearing 17.4 kHz: Acoustic – a frequency known as the Mosquito, which is generally only audible to those under the age of 24. 25.1 kHz Acoustic – G 10, the highest pitch sung by Georgia Brown, who has a vocal range of 8 octaves. 44.1 kHz: Common audio sampling frequency: 10 5: 100 kHz: 740 kHz

  7. Missing fundamental - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_fundamental

    The GCD of the frequency of all harmonics is the fundamental (dashed). A low pitch (also known as the pitch of the missing fundamental or virtual pitch [3]) can sometimes be heard when there is no apparent source or component of that frequency.

  8. Absolute threshold of hearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_threshold_of_hearing

    The absolute threshold of hearing (ATH), also known as the absolute hearing threshold or auditory threshold, is the minimum sound level of a pure tone that an average human ear with normal hearing can hear with no other sound present. The absolute threshold relates to the sound that can just be heard by the organism.

    Human eyes have three types of cones: red-sensing, green-sensing and blue-sensing. Feline eyes also contain the same color-sensing cones as humans , but this doesn't mean our visions are the same ...
