  • This apparatus uses modern technology to completely update the Ripple Tank concept
  • It provides a compact and elegant method of showing the wave phenomena of diffraction, refraction, reflection, and interference, with none of the usual problems
  • The tank is a 4 in. (100 mm) square and is supported on a base which provides the wave generator and lighting
  • Images of the water waves produced are projected upwards onto a frosted screen, which is viewed from above
  • The white light source can be switched between constant illumination and strobe to give either moving or frozen images on the screen
  • In the strobe mode, the light source is synchronized to the wave generator so that perfectly static patterns are displayed
  • The wave frequency can be varied, giving wavelengths in the tank ranging from several cm to a few mm
