In this activity (posted on March 12, 2011), learners follow the steps to construct a spectroscope, a tool used to analyze light and color.
Diffraction Between Wax Blocks
Source Institutions
In this optics activity, learners explore diffraction by adding wax blocks to a ripple tank. The wedge-shaped blocks act as obstacles that the wave must bend around.
CD Spectrometer
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use a compact disc to make a spectrometer, an instrument used to measure properties of light.
Interference in a Ripple Tank
Source Institutions
In this optics activity, learners explore interference by adding wax blocks to a ripple tank.
