Compact Ripple Tank (Economy)
Item Code : SA706
Principle and Working:
The ripple tank is the most effective way for students to study waves. The Inspire Ripple Tank contains all the accessories needed to cover the full range of experiments, such as reflection, refraction, diffraction, and interference, with the accessories stored in a handy tray at the top of the unit. There are two models available: Economy and Advanced. With either model, users can change the frequency of both the dippers and the LED strobe lighting.
