The graph shows the range of frequencies commonly heard by some animals. which animals can hear a sound wave that has 18,500 cycles in 0.75 seconds? check all that apply. a. bats b. moths c. cats d. humans e. birds f. fish g. crickets

Concept:

Frequency- It is defined as the number of oscillations occur in one second.

Its SI unit is Hertz (Hz)

Given: Produced sound vibrations is 18,500 cycles in 0.75 seconds

∵ In 0.75 second, produced sound has oscillations = 18,500 cycles

∴ In 1.0 second, produced sound has oscillations = (18,500 ÷ 0.75) Hz

The frequency of the sound will be ≈ 24,667 Hz

From the study of the given graph, only the animals (c) Cats, (b) Moths and (a) Bats can hear the produced sound because their upper audible frequency range is greater than 24,667 Hz.
