Description

The experiments P1.6.4.6 and P1.6.4.7 examine the reflection of water waves. When straight and circular waves are reflected at a straight wall, the wave beams obey the law of reflection. When straight waves are reflected by curved obstacles, the originally parallel wave rays travel in either convergent or divergent directions, depending on the curvature of the obstacle. We can observe a focusing to a focal point, respectively a divergence from an apparent focal point, just as in optics.
