Ultrasound. High-frequency sound waves (ultrasound) are used to probe the interior of the body, much as x rays do. To detect a small objects such as tumors, a frequency of around 5.10 MHz is used. What are the period and angular frequency of the molecular vibrations caused by this pulse of sound

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Frequency of sound   n  = 5.1 MHz = 5.1 x 10⁶ Hz

angular frequency ω = 2π x n

= 2 x 3.14 x 5.1 x 10⁶ rad /s

= 32.028 x  10⁶ rad /s

period of vibration = 1 / n

1 / 5.1 x 10⁶

= .196 x 10⁻⁶ s

T  = .196 μs

The period and angular frequency of the molecular vibrations is 1.96 * 10⁻⁷s and 3.202 * 10⁷ rad/s.

Based on the given question,

• The frequency used to detect tumors is 5.10 MHz or 5.10 × 10⁶ Hz.

Now the period and angular frequency of the molecular vibrations caused by the given pulse of sound is,

Period,

[tex]= T = \frac{1}{f}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{1}{5.10 * 10^{6} } Hz\\= 1.96 * 10^{-7} }s[/tex]

Angular frequency = 2πf

[tex]= 2*3.14 rad* (5.10 * 10^{6} Hz)\\= 3.202 * 10^{7} \frac{rad}{s}[/tex]

Thus,  the period is 1.96 * 10⁻⁷ s and the angular frequency is 3.202 * 10⁷ rad/s.
