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