2. Wavelength in Soft Tissue _________ as Frequency Increases

Explanation

***If Frequency INCREASES ***Wave Length DECREASES
***If Frequency DECREASES *** Wave Length INCREASES

Submit

3. Period is the ______ that it takes for one cycle to occur.

Explanation

Time from the start of a cycle to the start of the next cycle *Period is determined by the Sound Source ONLY, not by the medium

Submit

4. Period decreases as ____________ increases.

Explanation

Period and frequency are INVERSELY RELATED to each other

Submit

5. Propagation Speed is the speed with which a ________ moves through a medium in 1 second.

Submit

6. Ultrasound is a sound with a frequency greater than ________Hz

Submit

7. Frequency is a measure of how many ______ an acoustic variable goes through in a second.

Explanation

Frequency is reported in units of per second , 1/Sec, Hertz, or Hz. Hertz is another way to say "Per Second"

Submit

8. The wavelength of 7-MHz ultrasound in soft tissue is __________mm

Explanation

***Wavelength ( __ ) = Speed (1.54mm/us) / Frequency (7-Mhz)

* 1.54 mm/us DIVIDED by 7Mhz = 0.22mm

Submit

9. If Wavelength is 2mm and the frequency is Doubled the Wavelength becomes__________mm

Explanation

As long as a wave remains in one medium, wavelength and frequency are inversely related. As frequency increases, wavelength decreases. The lower the frequency, the longer the wavelength. **Example** If a wave's frequency is twice that of another, the wavelength will be HALF as much
*Edelman PG. 33*

Submit

10. Sound is a traveling variation in quantities called?

Submit

11. If two media have different stiffness, the one with the higher stiffness will have the higher propagation speed.

Explanation

Sound travels fastest in solids, slower in liquids, and slowest in gases

Submit

12. Propagation Speed Increases if ____________ is Increased.

Explanation

Page 22 Kremkau

Submit

13. Wavelength is the length of ______ over which one cycle occurs

Explanation

Wavelength is the distance that a single cycle occupies space

Submit

14. The unit of frequency is ______, which is abbreviated________

Submit

15. Wavelength is equal to _________ ________ divided by _________

Explanation

The relationship between the three is that wavelength is equal to Propagation speed (1,540 m/s or 1.54mm/us) divided by frequency. **This equation predicts that wavelength decreases as frequency increases **Page 19 & 20 in Kremkau**

Submit

16. If Frequency in Soft Tissue is Doubled, Propagation Speed is _________....

Explanation

Propagation Speed is determined ONLY by the medium through which the sound is traveling.

Frequency of a sound wave is determined by the SOUND SOURCE only, not by the MEDIUM through which the sound is traveling

Submit

17. Propagation Speed in Bone is ______ than in Soft Tissue.

Submit

18. Acoustic Variables include __________, __________, and __________ _________
*3 Variables*

Explanation

A Wave is a Traveling Variation

Submit

19. Propagation Speed is determined by

Explanation

Speed is determined only by the medium through which the sound is traveling **Propagation Speed is the speed of sound through a medium**

Submit

20. A wave is a traveling variation in quantities called?

Submit

21. Sounds travels slowest in?

Submit

22. Solids have higher propagation speeds than liquids because they have greater

Submit

23. Sound travels fastest in?

Explanation

Fastest in SOLIDS

Submit

24. The _________ and_________ of a medium determine Propagation Speed

Explanation

Stiffness (Hardness)is the resistance of a material to compression *Page 20 Kremkau*

Submit

25. From given values for propagation speed and frequency, which of the following can be calculated?

Submit

26. Which of the following are Acoustic Variables? 
***More than one correct answer***
