Why do we call signals in the range 20 Hz to 20 000 Hz audio frequencies?
  • Because the human ear cannot sense anything in this range
  • Because this range is too low for radio energy
  • Because the human ear can sense radio waves in this range
  • Correct Answer
    Because the human ear can sense sounds in this range
