Color Mixer Accessory Kit contains 7 colored filter cards and 11 colored reflector cards for study of light color transmission and reflection

 Color Mixer (OS-8496)

An accessory for to the basic optics system to demonstrate additive color mixing.

 1.2 m Optics Track — Basic Optics (OS-8508)

The 1.2 m optics bench is a perfect length for investigations involving lenses, mirrors, and diffraction/interference patterns. Made of rugged extruded aluminum.

 Ray Optics Kit (OS-8516A)

A basic set of lenses and mirrors for ray and color experiments.

 Accessory Lens Set — Basic Optics (OS-8519)

Includes +250 mm and -150 mm lenses. Each is mounted in a lens holder, which clips directly into the Basic Optics Bench.

 Diode Laser — Basic Optics (OS-8525A)

Designed to be used with Basic Optics System allowing students to explore interference patterns

 Polarization Analyzer — Basic Optics (OS-8533A)

Measures relationship between light intensity transmitted through set of polarizers and angle of the polarizers.

 Linear Translator — Basic Optics (OS-8535A)

Used with the Rotary Motion Sensor and provides position data to the computer. Can be attached to Basic Optics Bench.

 PASPORT Absolute Pressure Sensor (PS-2107)

Measures gas pressure from various sources and internal vacuum allows consistent measurement above and below ambient conditions. For use with PASPORT Interfaces.

 PASPORT Quad Temperature Sensor (PS-2143)

Allows any combination of our stainless steel, fast response or skin/surface temperature probes for a wide variety of temperature measurement. For use with PASPORT Interfaces.

 PASPORT High Sensitivity Light Sensor (PS-2176)

Designed to perform visible light studies from low intensity spectral studies to daylight. For use with PASPORT Interfaces.

 Resonance Boxes: Sympathetic Resonance Box Set (SE-7345)

These boxes are constructed from hardwood and feature an A4 tuning fork mounted directly to the box. If tuned to the same frequency, striking one will cause the other to go into sympathetic vibration.

 Banana Plug Cord-Red (5 Pack) (SE-9750)

These heavy, insulated patch cords are convenient, durable and inexpensive. The grips are stackable and made of soft plastic for flexible strain relief. The spring connectors rotate in the grips, reducing wear due to friction. Length of 75 cm, set of 5.

 Radiation Cans (TD-8570A)

Three cans in different colors to quantitatively investigating a full range of heat transfer phenomena.

 Absolute Zero Sphere (TD-8595)

Use in water baths of different temperatures to measure corresponding changes in pressure. A linear fit allows extrapolation to find absolute zero.

 Ideal Gas Law Apparatus (TD-8596A)

Students can quantitatively look at the relationships between pressure, temperature and volume.

 Economy Resonance Tube (WA-9495)

Two nested cardboard tubes allow students to vary the length of a column of air and study resonance in both open and closed tubes.

 String Vibrator (WA-9857)

Drives a string or elastic cord to produce a standing wave. Use it to study frequency, wavelength, and resonance. It’s well-suited for demos and hands-on experiments.

 Open Speaker (WA-9900)

Designed for the study of wave properties, features a high-quality woofer mounted on a sturdy base with standard banana jack inputs.
