Q863
The range of normal human hearing is in the range of
A.
10 Hz to 80 Hz
B.
50 Hz to 80 Hz
C.
50Hz to 15000 Hz
AnswerD.
15000 Hz and above
Answer: Option C
Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
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 with age is considered normal. Sensitivity also varies with frequency, as shown by equal-loudness contours. Here, option C is correct.
