Chladni figures with the FG module and Cobra3

Product No: P2150515

Principle

To show the two-dimensional standing waves on the surface of a square or circular plate.

Tasks

A frequency generator is connected to a sound head. The sound head drives a Chaldni plate. White sand is sprinkled randomly to cover the entire black surface of the plate. Drive the plate at a predetermined harmonic frequency and the sand will migrate into the nodal regions. A well defined standing wave pattern can be clearly seen in the first photo. The circular and square Chladni plates will create characteristic patterns. Adjust the oscillator slowly in the 0.2 to 2 kHz frequency range and watch for the pattern to emerge when a harmonic is tuned.
