kuulmiskünnise
Kuulmiskünnis refers to the minimum intensity of a sound that a human ear can detect. It is typically measured in decibels (dB) and is frequency-dependent, meaning it varies depending on the pitch of the sound. For instance, the human ear is most sensitive to sounds in the range of 2,000 to 5,000 Hertz (Hz), where the kuulmiskünnis is lowest. At higher and lower frequencies, a greater sound intensity is required for detection.
The average kuulmiskünnis for young, healthy adults is often considered to be around 0 dB at 1,000
