Answer:

2.49 * 10^(-4) m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Frequency, f = 4.257 MHz = 4.257 * 10^6 Hz

Speed of sound in the body, v = 1.06 km/ = 1060 m/s

The speed of a wave is given as the product of its wavelength and frequency:

v = λf

Where λ = wavelength

This implies that:

λ = v/f

λ = (1060) / (4.257 * 10^6)

λ = 2.49 * 10^(-4) m

The wavelength of the sound in the body is 2.49 * 10^(-4) m.

Let us say that Cp is the specific heat of the metal object. Then we do a heat balance (heat lost by metal = heat gained by water):

- 19g * Cp * (22degC – 96degC) = 75g * 4.184J/g degC * (22degC – 18degC)

Scientists need to know how to make measurements
Verizon [17]

Part of the scientific process involves sharing your results with other scientists. To do this, we all need to use the same measurement system, which you'll learn about in this lesson.

Imagine you're trying to find out how much an elephant weighs. You're pretty sure it weighs a lot, but you don't know the exact number. So you ask your teacher, and she tells you an elephant weighs the same as three hippos.

Well that's nice to know, but how much does a hippopotamus weigh? Again, you ask your teacher, and she tells you a hippopotamus weighs the same as five alligators. That's a cool fact to know, but you still don't understand how much an elephant weighs because comparing elephants to alligators can be confusing.
