← ScienceWhat occurs as the primary acoustic consequence when ultrasound encounters a large air pocket during propagation through human tissue?
A)Reduced reflection coefficient
B)Increased medium frequency absorption
C)Total wave reflection✓
D)Enhanced standing transverse wave formation
💡 Explanation
Total wave reflection results because the large impedance mismatch between tissue and air causes acoustic impedance difference; therefore reflection occurs rather than transmission because most energy cannot efficiently transfer.
