This simulation allows the user to investigate the diffraction pattern due to an obstacle in a ripple tank. The user can change the wavelength of the waves, and the obstacle size.
This is a part of the "Learn Physics using Java" library of simulations. Please note that this resource requires Java Applet Plug-in.
