20Hz- 20kHz (audible frequencies)
< 20Hz (infrasonic)
> 20kHz (ultrasonic)
longitudinal wave - sound wave
the rest are transverse waves

20 - 20k Hz
high frequency hearing deteriorates with age and exposure to loud or "droning" sounds
check your textbook definition of longitudinal waves and think it through. the answer will be obvious.
