Wave Motion Machine

Product Code : ILS-PLE-10193

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Wave Motion Machine (Product ID: 10193) as part of its physics lab equipment range. It is a mechanical model that shows how a progressive transverse wave travels along a line of particles.

Quick Answer

A row of circular discs is mounted at equal spacing on a horizontal shaft, each set with a slightly different eccentricity from the one before it. Every disc carries a vertical rod of the same length that slides up and down in a pair of guides. As the shaft turns, each rod moves up and down a little later than its neighbour, so the rod tips trace a wave that moves along the machine while each rod stays in its own place. The whole assembly is mounted on a wooden base.

Where This Is Used

Used in school wave lessons to separate particle motion from wave motion, before students make real waves with a Helical Spring (Product ID: 11733) or the Ripple Tank Apparatus (Product ID: 10225). Browse the full Physics Lab Equipment range or related Wave Motion products.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of wave does it show?
A progressive transverse wave.

Do the rods travel along the machine?
No, each rod only moves up and down; the wave shape travels.

What produces the phase difference between rods?
The discs have gradually varying eccentricity.
