(#442920) {Refraction} A narrow beam of ultrasound waves reflects off a liver tumor as illustrated. The speed of sound in the liver is 10% less than in the surrounding medium. What is the depth of the tumor? Hint: first solve for the angle of the ray in the liver, then use trigonometry to find the depth. 120 cm Liver Tumor

Your boss calls you in his office and hands you the plot shown below. The plot represent data of reflection coefficient for an EM-wave at oblique incidence. It includes the index of refraction of the second medium (n2) and also an angle that your boss does not understand what it is. Your boss tells you that in 30 min, the customer will call back and wants the following information: 1. What polarization has been used to obtain the data 2. What is the index of refraction of the first medium and whether or not is an external or internal reflection. 3. What does the number right above the x-axis represent. 1.5 n;= 3 0.5 41.42 -0.5 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 Angle of incidence Reflection Coefficients
