Foam ball float

Apparatus
PIRA: 
3B22.31
Area: 
3 Oscillations and Waves
Topic: 
3B Wave Motion
Concept: 
Standing Waves

 

This is a tricky one! The sensitive controls must be set up correctly. The powerful device generates a lot of heat in a very short time. And even though it is ultrasonic, you still must wear ear protection, and instruct any observers to cover their ears! Take great care!!!  Once it is set up correctly, you can place the foam balls in the standing waves.
