Ultrasound waves are used to measure blood-flow speeds. Suppose a device emits sound at 450 kHz, and the speed of sound in human tissue is taken to be 1540 m/s. What is the expected beat frequency if blood is flowing normally in large leg arteries at 3.0 cm/s directly away...
Vp=deltaX/T
VpT=deltaX
T=deltaX/Vp
Vs=deltaX/T+60
Vs(T+60)=deltaX
VsT+Vs60=deltaX
T=deltaX-Vs60/Vp
deltaX-Vs60/Vp=deltaX/Vp
deltaX-Vs60=deltaX
deltaX=Vs60
Is this how you solve for deltaX
