    What is the beat frequence in Hz of ultrasound

    Ultrasound reflected from an oncoming bloodstream that is moving at a 30 cm/s is mixed with the original frequency of 2.5 MHz to produce beats. What is the beat frequency in Hz? (Velocity of sound in blood = 1540 m/s.)

    Ultrasound Problem: Detecting Small Objects in Eye Scan at 20Mhz

    The smallest object which can be resolved with a given frequency of ultrasound in a diagnostic scanner is on the order of the wavelength of ultrasound used. If 20 mhz ultrasound is used for a scan of the eye, and the speed oft the wave is 1500 m/sec, how small an object could be detected in the...

    Ultrasound reflected from an oncoming bloodstream

    Ultrasound reflected from an oncoming bloodstream that is moving at 31 cm/s is mixed with the original frequency of 1.3 MHz to produce beats. What is the beat frequency? (Velocity of sound in blood = 1540 m/s.) I know that there are two doppler shifts; one where the source is fixed and the...
