Describe how the ultrasound technology or research involves electromagnetic or sound waves
motikmotik
When undergoing an ultrasound, the transducer probe of the ultrasound machine transmits sound waves. It also receives the sound waves that are reflected back after it reaches a boundary. 

The reflected waves are received by the probe and relayed to the ultrasound machine. The machine calculates the distance from the probe to the tissue or organ (boundaries) using the speed of sound in tissue and the time of the each echo's return. It then <span>displays the distances and intensities of the echoes on the display screen, forming a two dimensional image. </span>

A sealed pressure cooker allows steam to escape only through an opening in the lid. a separate metal object, called a petcock, s
daser333 [38]

The mass of the petcock of the pressure cooker is  0.257 kg.

The total pressure inside the cooker is= atmospheric pressure+Gauge pressure

=100 kPa+101 kPa=201*10^3 Pa

The area of the petcock is= (π/4)d^2=0.785*0.004^2=12.56*10^(-6) m^2

Now the mass of the petcock is calculated as

P=(F/A)=(mg/A)

201*10^3=(m*9.81/(12.56*10^(-6)

m=0.257 kg

Therefore the mass of the petcock is 0.257 kg

An astronaut landed on a far away planet that has a sea of water. To determine the gravitational acceleration on the planet's su
TiliK225 [7]

The concept required to solve this problem is hydrostatic pressure. From the theory and assuming that the density of water on that planet is equal to that of the earth (1000kg / m ^ 3)we can mathematically define the pressure as

P = \rho g h

Where,

\rho = Density

h = Height

g = Gravitational acceleration

Rearranging the equation based on gravity

g = \frac{P_h}{\rho h}

The mathematical problem gives us values such as:

P = 2.4 atm (\frac{101325Pa}{1atm}) = 243180Pa

\rho = 1000kg/m^3

h = 28.6m

Replacing we have,

g = \frac{243180}{(1000)(28.6)}

g = 8.5m/s^2

Therefore the gravitational acceleration on the planet's surface is 8.5m/s^2
