- Water tank
Material |
Pyrex glass |
Height: |
20cm |
Depth: |
40cm |
Width: |
40cm |
-
- Working fluid
Top layer: |
water |
Bottom layer: |
a mix of limonene
and
methylene bromide |
-
- Visualization
- The optical rotation properties of limonene
was used to make the waves visible.
A polarizing finter was placed under the
water tank, and a white light was shone from
below the tank. The light was then observed
after passing through another polarizing
filter.1)
-
- Experimental process
- After spinning the tank, a wave-making block
hung at the interface was oscillated vertically
to create waves at the interface.
