6A46.00 | Rainbow | | |
6A46.10 | rainbow | PIRA 500 | |
6A46.10 | rainbow | 6A46.10 | |
6A46.10 | rainbow | Oj-10 | An arc lamp directed at a sphere of water forms a rainbow on a screen. |
6A46.10 | rainbow | L-43 | Project a beam through a spherical flask of water and view the rainbow on a screen placed between the light and the flask. |
6A46.11 | artifical rainbow | L-45 | Form a vertical circle "rainbow" by placing a tube of water between a prism and screen. |
6A46.12 | secondary rainbow | AJP 58(6),593 | Use
a single sphere with the back surface coated with a reflecting material to
show both primary and secondary bows with increased intensity. |
6A46.15 | rainbow droplets | L-44 | Small droplets
formed by spraying an atomizer on a soot covered glass plate glisten like
colored jewels when viewed at 41 degrees. |
6A46.16 | rainbow dust | AJP 56(11),1006 | On using small glass spheres to generate bows and halos. |
6A46.20 | rainbow model | PIRA 1000 | |
6A46.20 | rainbow model | 34-1.16 | Depict a three dimensional model of the rainbow with strings representing light rays. |
6A46.25 | rainbow | 34-1.17 | A mechanical model
for demonstrating rainbow formation shows why the rainbow is produced and
why size depends on the time of day. |
6A46.26 | rod and dowel raindrop model | TPT 28(7),509 | A rod and dowel raindrop model is used to show why a rainbow is bow-shaped. |
6A46.30 | optical disc with spherical lens | PIRA 1000 | |
6A46.30 | optical disc with spherical lens | 6A46.30 | A single beam into a circular glass element is refracted, totally internally reflected, and refracted out again. |
6A46.30 | rainbow disc | Disc 23-24 | A single
beam is used with a spherical glass element on an optical board to show the
path of refracted light that produces a rainbow. |
