What is the audible range of sound for human beings?

Answer: Humans can hear by sensing vibrations in the air resulting from sound waves. The vibrations are detected in our middle ear. Here, they are converted into pressure waves.

The total amount of sound waves emitted in a second is denoted as frequency. The unit of frequency measurement is Hertz (Hz). The Pitch of a sound is directly proportional to that sound’s frequency. Human beings can hear the sound as long as the frequency ranges between 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz. For individuals who do not face any hearing issues, the values like 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz seem to be the ultimate borders.
