Product Information

Our Ripple Tank/Wave Generator is designed specifically for use with an overhead projector.
You can show your entire class experiments demonstrating wave propagation, reflection, diffraction, frequency, wavelength and velocity relationships, and interference and phase differences. All of these general wave phenomena become much more dramatic when projected on a screen.
The package includes the specially designed ripple tank, a wave generator, and four barriers. The tank is clear plastic and measures 30 cm x 33 cm. The slightly beveled sides eliminate the need for dampers. The sides have also been built up to make it easier to handle the tank when full.
Our variable phase wave generator is housed in a sturdy aluminum case with a 20 cm steel rod extending through the back for simple attachment to a ring stand. Two point sources produce circular waves from one or two of four possible positioning points.
A flat wave source is also supplied. Wave frequency can be varied from 3 to 20 per second using a variable DC power supply or external rheostat; frequency is 7 per second using a 1.5 V dry cell.
Accessories include a flat barrier, a curved barrier, and two barriers for producing a slit.
