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

Probably not what you were expecting... the average bottle of water is 24 ounces. 5 milliliters is about the amount of water in a spoon. Hope this helps!!!

The normal force acting on an object and the force of static friction do zero work on the object. However the reason that the wo
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

<em>The normal force is perpendicular to the displacement</em>

<em>The static friction force produces no displacement</em>

Explanation:

Work Done By Special Forces

The work is a physical magnitude that measures the dot product of the force applied to an object by the displacement it produces in it.

W=\vec F\ \vec r

It can be written in its scalar version as

W=F.d.cos\theta

Being F and d the magnitudes of the force and displacement, and \theta the angle between them

If the angle is zero, the work is at maximum, it the angle is 90°, the work is zero. If the angle is between 90° and 180°, the work is negative.

The normal force acts in the vertical direction when the object is being pushed horizontally. It means the angle between the force and the displacement is 90°, thus the work is

W=N.d.cos90^o=0

The work is zero because the force and the displacement are perpendicular

The static friction force exists only when the object is being applied a force of a magnitude not large enough to produce movement, i.e. the object is at rest. If the object is moved, the friction force is still present, but it's called dynamic friction force, usually smaller than the static.

Since in this case, there is no displacement, d=0, and the work is

W=F_r(0)cos180^o=0

For a moon orbiting its planet, rp is the shortest distance between the moon and its planet andra is the longest distance betwee
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: D. 0.57

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the eccentricity e of an ellipse is (assuming the moon's orbit in the shape of an ellipse):

e=\frac{r_{a}-r_{p}}{r_{a}+r_{p}}

Where:

r_{a} is the apoapsis (the longest distance between the moon and its planet)

r_{p}=0.27 r_{a} is the periapsis (the shortest distance between the moon and its planet)

Then:

e=\frac{r_{a}-0.27 r_{a}}{r_{a}+0.27 r_{a}}

e=\frac{0.73 r_{a}}{1.27 r_{a}}

e=0.57 This is the moon's orbital eccentricity
