Overview:
Explore the beauty and complexity of wave motion with the Physics of Waves interactive exhibit — a hands-on educational installation perfect for science centers, physics classrooms, and STEM exhibitions. The exhibit features a small rope wave simulation module on the table and two large rope mechanisms mounted on the wall to vividly demonstrate different types of mechanical wave phenomena.
Visitors can adjust the motor speed and rope length to observe how variables influence the amplitude, frequency, and wavelength of the generated waves. The tabletop is made from DuPont™ artificial stone, offering durability and elegance, while the structure is crafted from sheet metal with a glossy automotive-grade finish for visual appeal and long-lasting use.
