A roll of paper is run past the oscillating can. The result is a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_wave">sine wave</a> on the paper. 51 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/185001480 2007-10-10 16:19:18 -0400 MIT News Office <p>Using a stroboscopic imaging system developed in MIT Professor Dennis Freeman's lab, Freeman's team obtained this video of wave motion along the ear's tectorial membrane (at top, the actual video showing nanometer-scale displacements, and at bottom, the same video, motion magnified (Liu et al., 2005) to make the motion more apparent). </p><p>Credit: Ghaffari, Aranyosi, and Freeman, MIT</p><p>More: <a href="http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2007/hearing-1010.html">MIT finds new hearing mechanism</a></p> 19 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/184927180 2009-06-18 13:08:48 -0400 MIT Department of Physics Technical Services Group A cart moving at constant velocity shoots a ball straight upwards. Since the ball has the same translational velocity as the cart, it is caught when it comes back down. 68 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/184902260 2009-08-17 10:44:10 -0400 endlab The internal wave field generated by a knife edge, as viewed using Synthetic Schlieren. 8
