The wavelength of a pulse is 0.1925mm. There are 5 cycles in the pulse. What is the spatial pulse length?
Hey, are these sonar transducers in water or speakers in air or what? (I am a naval architect - sonar)
Spatial pulse length: Length of a pulse from front to back = length of each cycle times the number of cycles in the pulse. Shorter pulse length improves resolution.
.1925*5 = .9625 mm
To find the spatial pulse length, we need to multiply the wavelength of a pulse by the number of cycles in the pulse.
In this case, the wavelength of the pulse is given as 0.1925 mm, and there are 5 cycles. The formula to calculate the spatial pulse length is:
Spatial Pulse Length = Wavelength × Number of Cycles
Plugging in the given values, we have:
Spatial Pulse Length = 0.1925 mm × 5 cycles
Now we can calculate:
Spatial Pulse Length = 0.9625 mm
Therefore, the spatial pulse length is 0.9625 mm.
