With the Speed of Light Meter you can measure the velocity of light in air and in other transparent media and additionally you can determine the distance.
Key Features
- Measuring the speed of light, as well as distances, with only one device all thanks to state-of-the-art digital measuring technology
- The unit is convincing by a quick set-up and a need of minimum adjustment
- The speed of light can be measured with an accuracy in air of +/- 2%
- Measurements can be performed with or without an oscilloscope
- Due to the integrated display of all of the relevant measurement quantities (ƒ, Δφ, Δt, Δx) the unit is of special interest for student and teacher experiments
- Distance measurements can be performed with the same device
