MCQ

उत्तर

20 Hz to 20000 Hz

Explanation:

  • Frequencies below 20 Hz are infrasonic and cannot be heard.
  • Frequencies above 20 kHz are ultrasonic and are inaudible to humans.
  • Hearing ability declines with age, especially for higher frequencies.
  • Some animals can hear beyond this range (e.g., dogs and bats).

Thus, humans can hear sounds in the 20 Hz to 20 kHz range.
