An ultrasound machine in a hospital uses a sound source at 5.10000MHz. Assuming that the speed of the ultrasound in the body is same as water (1440 m/s), determine the wavelength in the body. If blood cells are moving towards the sound source at a speed of 0.8 m/s, at what frequency do the crests of the sound wave pass through the blood cell? What is the frequency of the sound waves reflected back towards the source by the blood...
