We-1 The Doppler Rings
Aim
To demonstrate the wave basis of the Doppler effect.
Apparatus
- Overhead Projector
- Doppler Rings as shown
Doppler Rings Diagram.
Description
The apparatus consists simply of a series of sheetmetal rings of increasing diameter. They may be placed on the overhead projector and displaced laterally to display the effect of increased wave-fronts due to motion between the source and a stationary observer.
