  • This demonstration has been used to explain how sound can
    be used to break a wine glass, or to help illustrate principles behind the
    Bohr model of the hydrogen atom.
  • There are two configurations of loops from which to choose:
    parallel to the floor or perpendicular to the floor.
  • When changing accessories to the oscillator be careful to
    lock the piston (as the oscillator is quite delicate).

Location

  • Mechanical oscillator, wire loop, and
    function generator located in L02, section C2, in “Chladni plates”
    box.
