The probe used in a medical ultrasound examination emits sound waves in air that have a wavelength of 0.12 mm. What is the wavelength of the sound waves in the patient?a) 0.54 mm b) 0.12 mm c) 0.26 mm d) 0.027 mm

0.54mm

Explanation:

Given the following :

Wavelength (λ) of Soundwave in air = 0.12mm

Velocity of sound wave (v) = 340m/s

Calculate the frequency (f) :

v = fλ

Wavelength to metres

1000mm = 1 m

0.12mm = (0.12/1000)m

= 0.00012m

v = fλ

340 = F * 0.00012

f = 340 / 0.00012

f = 2833333.3 Hz

Wavelength of Soundwave in the patient:

Velocity of sound wave through body tissue = 1540m/s

Therefore,

Using v = fλ

λ = v / f

λ = 1540 / 2833333.3

λ = 0.0005435m

λ = (0.0005435 * 1000)mm

λ = 0.5435mm = 0.54mm

the results is a decrease in air temperature with an increase of altitude.
