Question

What are sonic waves?

Answer 1

Sonic waves:

• The human ear can easily perceive frequencies ranging from$20\mathrm{Hz}$to $20\mathrm{kHz}$.
• As a result, audible sound is defined as sound waves with frequencies ranging from $20\mathrm{Hz}$ to $20\mathrm{kHz}$.
• If the audible frequency range is present, the human ear is sensitive to every minute pressure fluctuation in the air.
• Example: Waves produced by vibrating sitar, guitar, organ pipes, flutes, shehnai, etc.
