Problem

An obstetrician is using ultrasound in soft tissue where the speed of sound is 1.54×103 m/s1.54\times10^{3}\,\text{m/s}. The image resolution requires a wavelength of 0.75 mm0.75\,\text{mm} in the tissue. Calculate the operating frequency the ultrasound transducer should emit. Give your answer in MHz.
