Given that the speed of sound in the rat tissues was 1500 m/s, the wavelength of the ultrasound wave used in the study was closest to:___________

Respuesta :

Answer:

Wavelength, [tex]\lambda=6.52\times 10^{-4}\ m[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of the sound in the rat tissues, v = 1500 m/s

Let [tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength of an ultrasonic wave. The speed of a wave is given by the relation as follows:

Let us assume that the frequency of ultrasonic wave is 2.3 MHz.

[tex]v=f\lambda[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{1500\ m/s}{2.3\times 10^{6}}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=6.52\times 10^{-4}\ m[/tex]

So, the wavelength of an ultrasonic wave is [tex]6.52\times 10^{-4}\ m[/tex].  Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

The wavelength of the ultrasound wave used in the study was closest to [tex]6.52 \times 10^{-4} m$[/tex] .

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of sound in the rat tissues [tex]=1500 m/s[/tex]

Step 1:

Let [tex]v[/tex] be the speed of the sound in the rat tissues,

[tex]v = 1500 m/s[/tex]

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength of an ultrasonic wave

The frequency of an ultrasonic wave is [tex]2.3 MHz.[/tex]

The equation to find The speed of a wave is,

[tex]$v=f \lambda$[/tex]

From this,

[tex]$\lambda=\frac{v}{f}$[/tex]

Substitute the values,

[tex]$\lambda=\frac{1500 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}}{2.3 \times 10^{6}}$[/tex]

[tex]$\lambda=6.52 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}$[/tex]

Therefore, The wavelength of the ultrasound wave used in the study was closest to [tex]6.52 \times 10^{-4} m$[/tex] .
