Projected soap film showing colorful interference bands of magenta, green, cyan, yellow, and blue swirling across the film against a dark background

Interference in a Soap Film

Students observe thin film interference as colored bands form in a soap film and evolve over time. The projected image shows how constructive and destructive interference between reflections from the …

Newton's Rings

Projects circular interference fringes formed by the air wedge between a plano-convex lens and a flat glass plate. Students observe that the central spot is dark (due to the phase …
Projected soap film vibrating at a resonant frequency, showing concentric circular nodal rings with iridescent pink, yellow, and green thin-film interference colors against a dark background

Normal Modes of a Circular Membrane

Visualizes normal mode vibrations of a circular membrane using a speaker-driven soap film and optical projection. Students observe distinct nodal patterns at resonant frequencies, extending standing wave concepts from 1D …
