Product Overview
The Mechanical Resonance Demo Kit with Audio Generator is designed to demonstrate oscillations, wave motion, and resonance using various mechanical components. This kit enables students to visually and practically explore wave behavior through coil springs, cords, wire rings, and metal strips, making it an excellent tool for educational applications in wave theory and sound.
Audio Generator
This versatile audio generator produces frequencies ranging from 0.1 Hz to 200 kHz and is capable of generating both sine and square waves. The square waves switch between two distinct levels, and the unit offers four pre-set frequency options: 100 Hz, 1 kHz, 10 kHz, and 100 kHz. The frequency can be precisely adjusted using a knob, allowing for fine control. The audio generator is housed in a durable plastic casing with overload protection and is driven by a loudspeaker to ensure smooth oscillations and fine travel stepping. It also includes a jack for connecting a 5.5-watt speaker, with amplitude control for further flexibility.
Included Accessories
The kit comes with the following accessories for hands-on demonstrations:
-
Resonance Wire Ring: 300 mm diameter
-
Longitudinal Wave Spring: 15 mm diameter, 500 mm unstretched length
-
Resonance Metal Strips: 12.5 mm wide, 0.2 mm thick
-
Transverse Wave Cord: 0.6 mm diameter, 50 m length
These components allow for a range of experiments, from visualizing wave motion to demonstrating resonance and oscillations in different materials. For advanced experiments, a stroboscope can be used to slow down the wave motion, allowing for clear observation of frozen or slowly moving images.
