Just like "infrared" is light that we can't see because its frequency is lower than the
frequency of red light, "infrasound" is vibration or waves in air that we don't hear,
because its frequency is lower that the lower limit of human sound perception.
Infrasound.
Acoustics is the study of sound, ultrasound and infrasound, that is, waves in gases, liquids, and solids.
Infrasound has a frequency below normal hearing. Ultrasound waves have a frequency above the normal range of human hearing.
Humans are able to hear infrasound, depending upon frequency and amplitude.
Range of frequency associated with infrasound is less than 20Hz.

Acoustics is the study of sound, ultrasound and infrasound, that is, waves in gases, liquids, and solids.
Infrasound is always smaller or lighter than ultrasound. For example: infrasound can be the sound of a paper clip hitting the floor, and ultrasound can be the sound of two planets colliding.
Infrasound sometimes results naturally from 'severe weather', lee waves, avalanches, earthquakes, volcanoes, bolides, waterfalls, calving of icebergs, aurora, lightning and upper-atmospheric lightning. Nonlinear ocean wave interactions in ocean storms produce pervasive infrasound vibrations around 0.2 Hz, known as microbaroms. Infrasound can also be generated by man-made processes such as sonic booms and explosions

Ultrasound is above 18 kilohertz. Infrasound is below 20 hertz.
Infrasound has a longer wavelength.
Infrasound has a frequency below normal hearing. Ultrasound waves have a frequency above the normal range of human hearing.
Humans are able to hear infrasound, depending upon frequency and amplitude.
Range of frequency associated with infrasound is less than 20Hz.
Infrasound is sound that is lower in frequency than 20 Hz (Hertz) or cycles per second, the normal limit of human hearing. Ultrasonic waves have frequencies above the audible range at around 20 kHz. Audible sound is within human hearing range.
