Fiber Optics IF 549 Light Ray Viewing Project w laser .5 mW / Class II
SKU: IF 549
|
Overview
The Light Ray Viewing Kit is a small "liquid laboratory." When used with any of our lasers it creates underwater light ray patterns and diagrams that constitute the basics of all introductory optic studies. In a complementary series of activities in the accompanying instruction guide, students can observe, and more readily understand, principles and equations such as:
- Snell's Law
- Total internal reflection
- Equal angles of incidence and reflection
- Critical angle of light
Set-up for each experiment requires less than five minutes and costs only a few pennies. ("Just add water!")
Project equipment includes: impact-resistant observation tank, four ounces of scattering solution, first-surface mirror, stirring rod, ruler; protractor, Full-color instruction guide, and .5 mW Class II Helium neon laser.
