Ultrasonic images are obtained from the inside organs of our body. This process uses which property of sound wave?
Temka [501]

This question involves the concepts of echo, ultrasonic images, ultrasonic sound waves.

The process of ultrasonic images uses the "echo" property of the sound waves.

Echo is the property of the sound wave by the virtue of which the sound wave reflects back to the source of the sound after hitting a surface or an object.

Ultrasonic images are obtained from inside organs of our body. This process involves the use of ultrasonic sound waves that have a frequency greater than 20,000 Hz. These sound waves are out of the range of audible sound by the human ear. When these ultrasonic sound waves are sent in form of pulses into the human body by the use of probes, they reflect back from the tissues of different organs to the probe. The probe then records the reflection properties of these sound waves and displays them in form of an image, known as ultrasonic images.

5. Why did people change the Bronx River in the past?​
liubo4ka [24]

when a glacier came through the Bronx approximately 240,000 years ago it blocked part of the original path of the Bronx river and subsequently reshaped and modified the path of the river over the past 200 years the rivers course has been altered dramatically by human impact and industry.

How long does it take light to travel 850 km in a vacuum? Answer in ms.(Express your answer to two significant figures.)
poizon [28]

Answer:

0.002833 sec

Explanation:

Speed of light in vacuum is 3\times 10^{8}m/sec

Given distance = 850 km = 850×1000=850000 m

We have to calculate the time that light take to travel the distance 850 km

Time T=\frac{distance }{speed}=\frac{850000}{3\times 10^8}=2.833\times 10^{-3}sec

So the time taken by light to travel 850 km is 0.002833 sec

You are driving at the speed of 27.7 m/s (61.9764 mph) when suddenly the car in front of you (previously traveling at the same s
densk [106]

Here when car in front of us applied brakes then it is slowing down due to frictional force on it

So here we can say that friction force on the car front of our car is given as

F_f = \mu m g

So the acceleration of car due to friction is given as

F_{net} = - \mu mg

a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}

a = -\mu g

now it is given that

\mu = 0.868

g = 9.81 m/s^2

so here we have

a = -0.868 * 9.81

a = -8.52 m/s^2

so the car will accelerate due to brakes by a = - 8.52 m/s^2

Express the kinetic energy K in terms of the potential energy U.<br><br><br> K=GMm/2R
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

K = -½U

Explanation:

From Newton's law of gravitation, the formula for gravitational potential energy is;

U = -GMm/R

Where,

G is gravitational constant

M and m are the two masses exerting the forces

R is the distance between the two objects

Now, in the question, we are given that kinetic energy is;

K = GMm/2R

Re-rranging, we have;

K = ½(GMm/R)

Comparing the equation of kinetic energy to that of potential energy, we can derive that gravitational kinetic energy can be expressed in terms of potential energy as;

K = -½U
