- High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is one treatment for certain types of cancer. 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 3.10 MHz produced an intensity of 1425.0 W/cm². The energy was delivered in short pulses for a total time of 2.60 s over an area measuring 1.20 mm by 5.30 mm. The speed of sound in the soft tissue was 1570 m/s, and the density of that tissue was 1492.0 kg/m³. What was the wavelength of the ultrasound beam? How much energy Etotal was delivered to the tissue during the 2.60 s treatment? What was the maximum displacement A of the molecules in the tissue as the beam passed through? λ = Etotal A = = 5.06 X10-4 5.8 ×10¹2 Incorrect 3.15 x10-7 Incorrect m marrow_forwardA sonic depth gauge is placed 4.9 m above the ground.
