A Doppler blood flowmeter emits ultrasound at a frequency of 5.0 MHz. What is the beat frequency between the emitted waves and the waves reflected from blood cells moving away from the emitter at 0.15 m/s?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Frequency of source [tex]f=5\ MHz[/tex]

velocity of blood cells moving away [tex]v_l=0.15\ m/s[/tex]

assuming velocity of sound in blood is [tex]v=1540\ m/s[/tex]

Considering Doppler effect to get the apparent frequency

Frequency shift of a moving object is given by

[tex]\Delta f=\pm 2f_s\cdot \frac{v_0}{v}[/tex]

Where [tex]\Delta f=[/tex]shift in frequency

[tex]f_s=[/tex]Frequency of source

[tex]v_0=[/tex]velocity of observer

[tex]v=[/tex]velocity of sound in given media

[tex]\Delta f=\pm 2\cdot 5\cdot \frac{0.15}{1540}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta f=974\ Hz[/tex]
