N1-42: RAINDROP MECHANICAL MODEL
Additional Info
- ID Code: N1-42
- Purpose: Illustrate rays in formation of a rainbow.
- Description: A styrofoam ball represents a raindrop, with a plastic dowel representing the incoming white light ray and painted wooden dowels representing the exiting red and blue rays for the first order rainbow. This shows why the red and blue rays from the same raindrop cannot be seen by the same person.
- Availability: Available
