what happens to the period of a wave as it proagates
it remains the same
as sound travels through a medium what term descrives the effects of the meduim on the sound wave
acoustic propagation properties
what is the unit for the speed of ultrasound in soft tissue
m/s (1.54)
what is the freq of a wave with 1msec period
1khz
what is the distance covered by one cycle
wavelength
which of the following is determinded by the source and the medium? freq, period, prop speed, or range resolution
range resolution
a sound waves freq is 10MHz. The wave is traveling in soft tissue. What is the wavelength?
0.15 mm
what happens to the speed of sound in a medium when the bulk modulus of the medium increase
faster
if the level of an acoustic variable ranges from 55 to 105, what is the amplitude
25
if the intensity of a sound beam remains unchanged while the beam area is reduced in half. what has happened to the power
halved
what is the minimum value of duty factor
0%
what happens to the speed of sound in a medum when the bulk modulus of the medium decreses
slower
sound intensity is decreased by 75%. how many decibels of attenuation is this
6db
if a 5MHz sound wave is traveling in the russues listed below, which will have the longest wavelength? fat, air, muscle, bone
bone
what is the approxomate attenuation coefficient of 1
0.5dB/cm
ipedance is the ____ of _______ and ________
product, prpagation speed, density
for soft tissue, the approximate attenuation coefficient in dB/cm is equeal to 1/2 _____ in _________
freq, MHz
as the impendances of 2 media become vastly different the
reflection increases
the angle between an US pulse and the boundry between two madia is 56 degrees, this is called
oblique incidence
refraction only occurs if there are
obligue incidence and diff propagation speeds
with normal incidence what factors affect refraction of US? propagation speeds, frequencies, attenuation coefficients, none of the above
non of the above
