Characteristics of a sound wave. Since sound is a wave, we can relate the properties of sound to the properties of a wave. The basic properties of sound are: pitch, loudness and tone. Pitch. The frequency of a sound wave is what your ear understands as pitch. A higher frequency sound has a higher pitch, and a lower frequency sound has a lower pitch.
Small mammals like Dogs, Cats etc. responds to 22-25 kHz US and Rats to 60-72 kHz. Insects like Mosquitoes, Flies responds to 38-44 kHz. What is Ultrasound? The hearing property of human ear is limited. Human ear can perceive sound with in a frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz. The sound frequency below 20 Hz is Infrasonic sound and above 20 kHz is Ultrasonic sound. Human ear is not sensitive to US because the eardrum cannot vibrate as fast as US. Ultrasound has high frequency, so the wave is very powerful.
