The Doppler shift of ultrasonic waves can measure the speed of blood in an artery. If the frequency of the stationary source is 100 kHz and the reflected sound has a Doppler shift of 200 Hz, what is the blood flow speed? (The speed of sound inside the body is 1500 m/s.)

Police radars determine speed by measuring the Doppler shift ofradio waves reflected by a moving vehicle. They do so bydetermining the beat frequency between the reflected wave and the10.5 GHz emitted wave. Some units can be calibrated by using atuning fork; holding a vibrating fork in front of the unit causesthe display to register a speed corresponding to the vibrationfrequency. A tuning fork is labeled "50 mph."

What is the frequency of the tuning fork?
