During the procedure, a narrow beam of high-intensity ultrasound is focused on the tumor, raising its temperature to nearly 90°C and killing it. A range of frequencies and intensities can be used, but in one treatment a beam of frequency 4.40 MHz produced an intensity of 1425.0 W/cm. The energy was delivered in short pulses for a total time of 3.40 s over an area measuring 1.80 mm by 5.40 mm. The speed of sound in the soft tissue was 1580 m/s, and the density of that tissue was 1509.0 kg/m?.

- Dr. Chini's research group recently made an interesting discovery, while studying laser interactions with molecular gases. They found that nitrous oxide molecules (mass 44.013 g per mole) can reach temperatures exceeding 745 degrees Celsius after a interacting with a few closely-spaced (in time) laser pulses. At this temperature, what is the rms speed (in m/s) of a nitrous oxide molecule?arrow_forward4. The density of the most common polymorph of ice is 917 kg/m³.
