  • Humans can hear sounds from frequencies of 20 to 20 kHz.
  • The low-frequency signal that can't be heard by human ears is called an infrasonic signal. Whereas the high-frequency signal that can't be heard by human ears is called ultrasonic sound.
  • Hence, sound waves having a frequency of more than 20 kHz are called ultrasonic sounds.
