A Doppler flow meter uses ultrasound waves to measure blood-flow speeds. Suppose the device emits sound at 3.5 MHz, and the spee

d of sound in human tissue is about 1540 m/s. What is the expected beat frequency observed at the flow meter if blood is flowing in large leg arteries at 3.0 cm/s directly away from the flow meter?

To solve this problem we will use the concept of the Doppler effect applied to the speed of blood, the speed of sound in the blood and the original frequency. This relationship will also be extrapolated to the frequency given by the detector and measured the change in frequencies through the beat frequency. So:

f_{blood} = f (1-\frac{v_{blood}}{v_{snd}})

Where

f_{blood} = Frequency of the blood flow

f = Frequency of the original signal

v_{blood} = Speed of the blood flow

v_{snd} = Speed of sound in blood

f''_{detector} = \frac{f_{blood}}{(1+\frac{v_{blood}}{v_{snd}})}

f''_{detector} = f (\frac{(1-\frac{v_{blood}}{v_{snd}})}{(1+\frac{v_{blood}}{v_{snd}})})

f''_{detector} = f \frac{(v_{snd}-v_{blood})}{(v_{snd}+v_{blood})}

Now calculating the beat frequency is

\Delta f = f-f''_{detector}

Replacing this latest value we have that,

\Delta f = f-f \frac{(v_{snd}-v_{blood})}{(v_{snd}+v_{blood})}

\Delta f = f \frac{2v_{blood}}{v_{snd}+v_{blood}}

Replacing we have,

\Delta f = (3.5*10^6)(\frac{2*(3*10^{-2})}{1.54*10^3+3*10^{-2}})

\Delta f = 136.36Hz

Therefore the beat frequency is 136.36Hz

The images output from your new color laser printer seem to be a little too blue. What can you do to fix this?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The images output from your new color laser printer seem to be a little too blue. to fix this problem we need to calibrate the printer.

Explanation:

This can be done by opening the toolbox, clicking in the device setting folder their you get print quality page click on it. Under the print quality option click on the calibrate next to calibrate now. Then click OK unless when the 'your request has been sent to the device' appears on the screen. When the calibration ends again try printing. calibrating is useful for managing the proper alignment of the inkjet cartridge nozzle to the paper and each other, without proper calibration the print quality deteriorates.

The force that pushes charges through a wire is called _____.
zhenek [66]

The force that pushes charges through a wire is called voltage. Electric current is the movement of the electrons caused by potential difference. For example, in a circuit, the electrons in the bulb will not move without the potential difference or voltage. When there is voltage, electric current occurs because there is a driving force for the electrons in the wire to move.

Helga [31]

The process which involves plants to cause weathering to a seed that falls into a crack in a rock therefore, breaking apart the rock is called Mechanical weathering.

<h3>Mechanical weathering</h3>

This is defined as the set of weathering processes that break apart rocks into particles (sediment) through physical processes. The most common form of mechanical weathering is the freeze-thaw cycle. Water seeps into holes and cracks in rocks then the water freezes and expands, therefore making the holes larger eventually making the rock split apart.
