- The analysis of any two-point source interference pattern and a successful determination of wavelength demands an ability to sort through the measured information and equating the values with the symbols in Young's equation. Apply your understanding by interpreting the following statements and identifying the values of y, d, m and L. Finally, perform some conversions of the given information such that all information share the same unit. a.

Assume that no echoes are returned at the transducer-tissue interface. The transducer is operating at 3 MHz frequency, measured from the transducer edge, A 3 cm and B= 5 cm. Use specific sound speeds in the corresponding materials. a) Assuming perpendicular incidence and that the system is setup to equalize the amplitude of all the returned signals (don't account for attenuation and reflection/transmittance at interfaces), sketch the timing of the first echoes (signals) received by the transducer from interfaces A, and B.arrow_forwardsimple method of determining the eye's sensitivity curve is to compare the luminances of two adjacent screen halves A and B when they receive monochromatic radiation of different wavelengths.
