It is accepted than the most humans can hear from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.
Of course it depends on the exact person because there are so many variables to consider in this topic. In fact, most humans are unable to hear in these limits. Older people hears less than young people.
By the way, the CD audio is coded at 44,100 Hz due to this fact. There is a theorem (Nyquist theorem) which establishes that any wave can be sampled and recover without loss if you use a sampling of 2 times limit frequency. Due to the fact that humans hears only until 20 kHz, 40 kHz is enough for sampling.

A unit of one cycle per second?
For waves the unit of one wave cycle per second is Hertz
How many cycle per second?
There can be any number. Cycles per second are referred to as Hertz
How many humans die per second?
Two people die per second. :(
What is a unit of measure for frequency consisting of a wave or cycle per second?
Hertz (Hz) is the SI unit of frequency, equal to one cycle per second.
What is equivalent of 2000 cycle per second?
2000 cycles per second can also be referred to as 2000 hertz(HZ). This can be found by using the conversion of 1 Hz=1 cycle/second.
What is the audio spectrum for humans?
Humans can usually here sounds from about 20 to 20,000 HZ. (cycles per second) Women and children can hear better than men.
A unit of one cycle per second?
For waves the unit of one wave cycle per second is Hertz
What animal can hear 20000 cycle per second?
What you refer to is called Echolocation and is used by such creatures as Whales, dolphins, bats, some birds and shrews.
How many nucleotides do humans get per second?
DNA replication in humans occurs at a rate of ______ nucleotides per second.
What can we not hear?
Humans can hear a sound if it has between 20-20,000 vibrations per second (hertz). The range gets smaller for old people. Any sound outside of this range can't be heard.
Are cycle per second the amount of waves per second?
Yes, a cycle is from start to finish of a wave function (until it repeats again)
A megahertz is what cycle per second?
One Megahertz is one million cycles per second.
What is another term for cycle per second?
Hertz (Hz) is a term for cycles per second.
Number of waves per second?
One Hertz equals one cycle per second.
How many cycle per second?
There can be any number. Cycles per second are referred to as Hertz
