Solution

The correct option is A

2000 Hz to 3000 Hz​


The audible range of frequency for an average person is considered to be from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Even in the audible range, the human ear is not equally sensitive to all frequencies. The human ear is most sensitive in the range 2000 Hz to 3000 Hz where a person can hear even a very poor sound.
