Ripple Tank - code: 4311.80
New version of a very effective tool that helps students understand wave mechanics. The Ripple Tank is a very effective tool that helps students to understand wave mechanics. The Ripple Tank is also used to introduce, develop and visually demonstrate wave theory such as refraction, diffraction and interference. Our unique system uses a pulsed air supply so that standing waves are easy to reproduce. No more difficult phase change oscillators to worry about! As withall Altay products, the Ripple Tank is supplied with all accessories, including connecting cables and instruction manual.
