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.
