An ultrasound unit is being used to measure a patient’s heartbeat by combining the emitted 2.0 MHz signal with the sound waves r

eflected from the moving tissue of one point on the heart. The beat frequency between the two signals has a maximum value of 520 Hz. What is the maximum speed of the heart tissue?

Answer: v= 0.2m/s

Explanation:

from Doppler effect

f = (2v/c) * fo

where:

f = the max beat frequency between two signals

fo = the emitted signal frequency from the organ.

v= The max speed of the organ tissue

c= 1540m/s (speed of Ultrasound wave in human tissue)

substituting the values, we have

520 Hz/ 2000000Hz = 2v/1540m/s

simplifying,

2v = (520 x 1540)/2000000

2v = 0.4004

v = 0.4/2 = 0.2 m/s

The max speed of the heart tissue is 0.2m/s

Elliot jumps up and down on a pogo stick. He weighs 600.N, and his pogo stick has a spring with spring constant 1100N/m. What is
tia_tia [17]

From conservation of energy, the height he will reach when he has gravitational potential energy 250J is 0.42 meters approximately

The given weight of Elliot is 600 N

From conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy of Elliot must have been converted to elastic potential energy. Then, the elastic potential energy from the spring was later converted to maximum potential energy P.E of Elliot.

P.E = mgh

where mg = Weight = 600

To find the height Elliot will reach, substitute all necessary parameters into the equation above.

250 = 600h

Make h the subject of the formula

h = 250/600

h = 0.4167 meters

Therefore, the height he will reach when he has gravitational potential energy 250J is 0.42 meters approximately
