Acoustic Interferometer

Type of activity: demo
Activity code:  00000


Description:

See description on the first year experiments website.

Look for interference between 3kHz and 10kHz.
Example: 3.18KHz


Note: Wavetek generator doesn't provide enough power for the microphone to pickup a strong signal (still visible but weak, about 2mVpp). Use the old analog generators for this.
