During an ultrasound, sound waves are sent by a transducer through muscle tissue at a speed of 1300 m/s. Some of the sound waves are reflected from a metal fragment in the muscle and are detected by the transducer 1.5 x 10−4 seconds after they were first emitted. What is the depth of the metal fragment in the muscle tissue?

Answer:

0.195 m

Explanation:

Speed is distance moved per unit time, expressed as s=d/t and making d the subject of the formula then d=st

Where d is distance/depth moved, s is rhe speed of waves and t is time in seconds.

Substituting s with 1300 m/s and t with 0.00015 s then the depth of metal segment will be

D=1300*0.00015=0.195 m

Therefore, the depth is equivalent to 0.195 m
