Different frequency only (option c)
- Our ear can perceive sounds from 20Hz upto 20,000 Hz. The lower frequency sounds are more dull , while the high frequency sounds are shrill.
- The cochlea of our ear can sense different sound frequency and differentiate them.
- Similarly, the sound of siren and whistle can be differentiated by our ear based on different parts of th cochlea getting stimulated by different frequencies.
