4. An ultrasound imaging system is used to image a bone embedded in a soft tissue. The noise level of the system is 65 dB below the intensity of the incident pulse. The linear absorption coefficient for soft tissue is 0.75 dBem", the acoustic impedance of soft tissue and bone are 1.7x10" kgm 's"' and 6.5x10 kgm-'s" , respectively. Estimate the maximum depth of the bone below the skin that can be imaged by the system. (10 marks)
