Because the speed of ultrasound in bone is about twice the speed in soft tissue, the distance to a structure that lies beyond a bone can be measured incorrectly. if a beam passes through 4 cm of tissue, then 2 cm of bone, and then another 1 cm of tissue before echoing off a cyst and returning to the transducer, what is the difference between the true distance to the cyst and the distance that is measured by assuming the speed is always 1540 m/s? compared with the measured distance, the structure is actually (a) 1 cm farther; (b) 2 cm farther; (c) 1 cm closer; (d) 2 cm closer.

Two loudspeakers, 5.5 m apart and facing each other, play identical sounds of the same frequency. you stand halfway between them, where there is a maximum of sound intensity. moving from this point toward one of the speakers, you encounter a minimum of sound intensity when you have moved 0.33 m . assume the speed of sound is 340 m/s. part a) what is the frequency of the sound? part b) if the frequency is then increased while you remain 0.21 m from the center, what is the first frequency for which that location will be a maximum of sound intensity? express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
