Some taxes are inadvertently hidden, but others are consciously designed that way to disguise the cost of government. Itâs easy to see why: the total U.S. tax burden is equal to 56 percent of annual personal consumption spending.
Thus, the volume is proportional to the amplitude of the sound wave. The frequency of a sound wave is perceived as pitch. Humans can detect pitches within the acoustic range of 20 to 20,000 Hz, but we can't detect ultrasound or infrasound.
The hertz, Hz, is the derived SI unit of frequency. The frequency of a sound wave determines its tone and pitch. The frequency range of a young person is about 20 to 20,000 hertz. The human ear is capable of hearing many of the sounds produced in nature, but certainly not all.
