Wave Simulator

Wave behavior

Model for demonstrating wave motion, superposition of waves, resultant wave forms and standing waves.

Wave simulator apparatus and motor, small battery, overhead projector

The apparatus is placed on the overhead projector and for best effect it is essential to use a masking plate which screens all but the rotating wires. These wires can be rotated by using the small battery and motor but can also be turned by hand for setting the wires in a particular situation.
