Demonstration Device of an Alarm from a Clock Under a Bell
Product Code : JL-GLE-11233
The Demonstration Device of an Alarm from a Clock Under a Bell, SKU JL-GLE-11233, is the JaincoLab bell in vacuum apparatus. An electric bell rings inside a glass cage closed by a rubber plug with two sockets. As the vacuum pump draws the air out through the glass tube, the ringing fades although the hammer can still be seen striking the gong, which shows the class that sound needs a medium such as air to travel.
