During an ultrasound, sound waves are sent by a transducer through muscle tissue at a speed of 1300 m/s. Some of the sound waves

are reflected from a metal fragment in the muscle and are detected by the transducer 1.5 x 10−4 seconds after they were first emitted. What is the depth of the metal fragment in the muscle tissue?

Answer:

0.195 m

Explanation:

Speed is distance moved per unit time, expressed as s=d/t and making d the subject of the formula then d=st

Where d is distance/depth moved, s is rhe speed of waves and t is time in seconds.

Substituting s with 1300 m/s and t with 0.00015 s then the depth of metal segment will be

D=1300*0.00015=0.195 m

Therefore, the depth is equivalent to 0.195 m

Why is gravitational forces equal for everyone?
Alik [6]

That equation is Newton's universal law of gravitation. ... Any two masses exert equal-and-opposite gravitational forces on each other. If we drop a ball, the Earth exerts a gravitational force on the ball, but the ball exerts a gravitational force of the same magnitude (and in the opposite direction) on the Earth.

If a reaction is exothermic, then which of the following statements is always true? If a reaction is exothermic, then which of t
sesenic [268]

Explanation:

Reactants ⇒ product + heat (exothermic reaction) ....(1)

We have given that the reaction is exothermic, so the heat is rejected from the reaction. We know that heat is the form of energy.

From equation (1)

from the given equation we can see that reactants have more energy than products.

So the reactants have higher potential energy in comparison to the products.
