Physics A burst of ultrasound signal travels at 343 m/s and takes 8*10^-3 s to reach and return from an object. Suppose that a 10-bit counter is available for counting the signal- travelling time. (i) What is the range, in metres, of the object? (ii) Choose the frequency, in kHz, of a pulse generator (square wave) for this counter so that the maximum range measurement is about 8 m.

A burst of ultrasound signal travels at 343 m/s and takes 8*10^-3 s to reach and return

from an object. Suppose that a 10-bit counter is available for counting the signal-

travelling time.

(i) What is the range, in metres, of the object?

(ii) Choose the frequency, in kHz, of a pulse generator (square wave) for this counter

so that the maximum range measurement is about 8 m.
