Area: 
3 Oscillations and Waves

3B Wave Motion

Transverse Pulses and Waves

 

Adjust the speed to create standing waves, or adjust to see different versions of constructive and destructive interference! Turn down the lights to let the flashing led colors add to the show.  NOTE: Although this seems like a toy, it is a very popular demo.  Please be careful with it!  They apparently are not being produced anymore, and are becoming more difficult to find!
