About This Product
At resonance a standing wave field forms in the liquid, so its refractive index varies periodically along the tank. This shows the interaction of longitudinal sound waves with transverse light waves, and also gives a way to determine the speed of sound in liquids, which is otherwise hard to do in the undergraduate lab. Export orders for the Ultrasonic Grating Apparatus are accepted from Burundi, Honduras, Bulgaria, the Philippines, Eritrea and Togo.
