Tones in hertz

• Humans can hear between ± 20 en 20 000 Hz .

- Lowest limit of hearing (onderste gehoorgrens) = lowest tone someone can hear

- Highest limit of hearing (bovenste gehoorgrens )= highest tone someone can hear

-Hearing range  (gehoorbereik) = Range between highest and lowest limit

Elderly people: hairs on the sensory cells in the cochlea break. The highest limit drops to 15000 Hz

Sound level (Geluidsniveau)

In decibel (dB)

130 dB and higher: chance of becoming deaf

The Eustachian tube (De buis van Eustachius)

Tube that connects the tympanic cavity with the pharynx (keelholte). 

Arranges that the pressure of air is equal on both sides of the eardrum.

Ear infection (middenoorontsteking) = infected tympanic cavity
