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 560 Hz . What is the maximum speed of the heart tissue? The speed of ultrasound waves in human tissue is 1540 m/s.
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Hi there, 
for this question we have:
Signal 2.0 MHz = Emitted so we can call it f_e
and we need the Reflected = f_{r}
In this question, we have a source which goes to the heart and a reflected which comes back from the heart and we need the speed of the reflected.
So you should know that the speed of reflected is lower than the source(Emitted). 
we also know: ΔBeat frequency(max) = 560 Hz = f_{b}
so we have: 
f_{e} - f_{r} = f_{b}
so frequency of Reflected is: 
2.0 × 10^6 Hz - 560 Hz = 1.99 × 10^6 Hz = f_{r}
now you know that Lambda = v/f 
so if we find the lambda with our Emitted then we can find v with the Reflected: 
Lambda = 1540(m/s) / 2.0 × 10^6 Hz = 7.7 × 10^-4 m 
=> v_{max} = (lambda)(f_{r} 
=> 7.7 × 10^-4m (1.99 × 10^6Hz) = 1532 m/s 
so the v_{max} is equal to 1532 m/s :)))
This question is solved by two top teachers as fast as they could :))
I hope this is helpful
have a nice day

Describe succinctly the relationship between how far a galaxy is from us (its distance), versus how fast it is moving.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Distance is directly proportional to the velocity

Explanation:

In 1929, Edwin Hubble's wrote an article that talked about relationship between the distance and recession speed/velocity of galaxies which led to what is known as the Hubble Law. This law states that galaxies are moving away from the earth at velocities proportional to their distances.

Thus is written as;

v = H_o•d

Where;

v is velocity

d is distance

H_o is Hubble's constant rate of cosmic expansion.

He came to this conclusion by generating a graph known as Hubble's classic graph which was a graph of observed velocity vs distance for nearby galaxies.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

1.) The current is doubled

2.) moving a magnet up and down near the wire

3.) An electric current in the wire produces a magnetic field.

4.) Distance between Particles (m)

Explanation:

1.) When 6 V battery is connected to a 24 ohm resistor to create a circuit, using ohms law, V = IR

Current I = 6/24 = 0.25 A

When the The 6 V battery is replaced with a 12 V battery,

Current I = 12/24 = 0.5 A

Therefore, The current is doubled

2.) Electric current will be induced when moving a magnet up and down near the wire

3.) An electric current in the wire produces a magnetic field.

4.) Distance between Particles (m)

The force of attraction between two different masses is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So I'm struggling with rearranging kinematic formulas. Does anyone have any steps or something to help.
bekas [8.4K]

Rearranging formulas is all about simple algebra rules. Just like when solving for x in an equation, you're just isolating whichever variable you want. I'll work this one out for you and hopefully it'll help, but if you need more explanation, then feel free to comment!

D = ViT + 0.5at²   Subtract ViT from both sides

D - ViT = 0.5at²    Divide both sides by 0.5t²

\frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} } = \frac{0.5at^{2} }{0.5t^{2} }    I wrote this step out a little more to show how your fraction will cancel

\frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} }= a    I like to flip these around so the single variable is on the right

a = \frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} }
