An ultrasonic scan uses the echo waves coming from something moving (such as the beating heart of a fetus) inside the body and the waves that are directly received from the transmitter to form a measurable beat frequency. This allows the speed of the internal structure to be isolated and analyzed. The speed of the ultrasound waves in tissue is about 1540 m/s. What is the beat frequency ?beats detected when waves with a frequency of 3.80 MHz are used to scan a fetal heartbeat (moving at a speed of ±8.50 cm/s)? hint that came with it: In this problem there's a stationary source of ultrasound that reflects sound off of a moving object which then returns back to the ultrasound device to measure the frequency. There are 2 Doppler shifts that need to be considered. First the stationary source and the moving observer. Second, when the sound reflects off, the moving object now becomes the source and the ultrasound device becomes the observer. In this shift, the frequency measured by the…

The musical note "A" creates a sound wave that can be modeled by the function f(x)=sin(880πx)f(x)=sin⁡(880πx), where xx represents the time in seconds. An "A" note completes 440440 cycles of the sine wave per second.What is the length of time for one period of this sine wave?

Microbats use echolocation to navigate and hunt. They emit pulses of high frequency sound waves which reflect off obstacles and objects in their surroundings. By detecting the time delay between the emitted pulse and the return of the reflected pulse, a bat can determine the location of the object. Determine the time delay between the sending of a pulse and the return of its reflection from an object located 12.5 m away. Approximate the speed of the sound waves as 345 m/s.
