Answer:
Frequency of the ultrasonic sound, f=1000kHz=10
6
Hz
Speed of sound in air, V
a
=340m/s
The wavelength (λ
r
) of the reflected sound is given by the relation:
λ
r
=V/f
=340/10
6
=3.4×10
−4
m.
(b) Frequency of the ultrasonic sound, f=1000kHz=10
6
Hz
Speed of sound in water, V
w
=1486 m/s
The wavelength of the transmitted sound is given as:
λ
r
=1486/10
6
=1.49×10
−3
m.
