Ultrasound, which consists of sound waves with frequencies above the human audible range, can be used to produce an image of the interior of a human body. Moreover, ultrasound can be used to measure the speed of the blood in the body; it does so by comparing the frequency of the ultrasound sent into the body with the frequency of the ultrasound reflected back to the body's surface by the blood. As the blood pulses, this detected frequency varies. Suppose that an ultrasound image of the arm of a patient shows an artery that is angled at 0 = 23° to the ultrasound's line of travel (see the figure). Suppose also that the frequency of the ultrasound reflected by the blood in the artery is increased by a maximum of 5670 Hz from the original ultrasound frequency of 5.000 MHz. (a) In the figure, is the direction of the blood flow rightward or leftward? (b) The speed of sound in the human arm is 1540 m/s. What is the maximum speed of the blood? (Hint: The Doppler effect is caused by the component of the blood's velocity along the ultrasound's direction of travel.) (c) If angle e were greater, would the reflected frequency be greater or less? Incident
