M7-03 TWO POLAROIDS AND LIGHT SOURCE
Additional Info
- ID Code: M7-03
- Purpose: Demonstrates polarization of light
- Description: The first polaroid circle polarizes the light. Rotating the front polaroid causes the light to become alternately brighter (polaroids aligned) and dimmer (polaroids crossed). This is best performed with a semi-diffuse light source, such as an incandescent lightbox.
- Availability: Available
- Loc codes: M7, LS1
- Videos-1: Demonstration video on YouTube
