Given: A vibrating object has a time-period of 0.06 seconds.

To do: To find whether this sound be detected by the human ear or not. 

Solution: 

Here as given, time period $T=0.06\ seconds$

Therefore, frequency of the sound $f=\frac{1}{T}$

$=\frac{1}{0.06\ second}$

$=16.67\ Hz$

Here, the frequency of the sound is too low to be heard by human ears. So this detected sound can't be heard by the human ear.
