Answer 1

This statement is True.

Explanation:

The fact is that sounds of frequencies less than about 20 vibrations per second (20 Hz) cannot be detected by the human ear. Such sounds are called inaudible. On the higher side, sounds of frequencies higher than 20,000 vibrations per second (20 kHz) are also not audible to the human ear.
