The frequency of a wave is 5 Hz. It refers to (type of wave)
- A. ultrasonics
- B. microwaves
- C. infrasonics
- D. radio waves
Step-by-step solution
Infrasonic waves are sound waves with frequencies below the human hearing range (typically less than 20 Hz). A frequency of 5 Hz falls within this range, making it infrasonic.
