What is the normal hearing range (frequency) of a human ear?

A. 10 Hz – 10 kHz
B. 20 Hz – 20 kHz
C. 30 Hz – 30 kHz
D. 40 Hz – 40 kHz
Correct Answer: B. 20 Hz – 20 kHz

Correct answer: 20 Hz – 20 kHz. A normal human ear can hear sounds from about 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz (20 kHz).

Background: Sounds below 20 Hz are infrasound, and above 20 kHz are ultrasound.

  • 10 Hz – 10 kHz: 10 Hz–10 kHz is not the normal range.
  • 30 Hz – 30 kHz: 30 Hz–30 kHz is not the normal range.
  • 40 Hz – 40 kHz: 40 Hz–40 kHz is not the normal range.

Did you know? Dogs can hear much higher sounds than humans.

Memory trick: 20 to 20k.
