There was an accident, and NASA engineers are trying to sort out where two of their Mars Rovers, Tango and Foxtrot, have landed. The engineers know that landing site A is much hotter than landing site B. Unfortunately, the only working sensors on Tango and Foxtrot measure the speed of sound. If Tango measures the speed of sound at its landing site as 240 m/s, while Foxtrot measures speed of sound as 258 m/s at its landing site, where has each rover landed?
On a 20°C°C night, a bat hovering in the air emits an ultrasonic chirp that has a
frequency of 45 kHzkHz. It hears an echo 60 msms later.
Suppose the object is an insect flying straight away from the bat. What is the
insect's speed if the ultrasonic echo is shifted down in frequency by 750 Hz?
an ultrasonic scan uses the echo waves coming from something moving inside the body and the waves that are directly received from the transmitter to form a measurable beat frequency. this allows the speed of the internal structure to be isolated and analyzed. the speed of the ultrasound waves in tissue is about 1540 m/s. what is the beat frequency detected when wves with a frequency of 4.40 MHz are used to scan a fetal heartbeat (moving at a speed of 9.30 cm/s)f(beat) = |f1 - f2|
