Simple Pattern Sonometer
Product Code : JA-SW-7655
The Simple Pattern Sonometer (SKU JA-SW-7655) is a two-wire sonometer on a wooden resonance box 1140 mm long, 125 mm wide and 100 mm high. Two 50 N spring balances with hooks at one end and two wrest pins at the other hold two steel wires, 30 SWG and 1 metre long, and three bridges are supplied: one large bridge spanning both wires and two small bridges for the individual wires. JaincoLab supplies this simple pattern sonometer for string vibration practicals in schools and colleges.

Vibrating string experiments with the simple sonometer
With each wire tensioned by its own 50 N spring balance, students can compare two wires directly: they vary the length between bridges and the tension on the balance to verify the laws of vibrating strings, and tune a wire into resonance with a tuning fork to find the fork’s frequency.
- Verifying the relation between frequency and vibrating length
- Studying the effect of tension using the 50 N spring balances
- Comparing two wires side by side under different tensions
- Finding the frequency of a tuning fork by resonance
- Senior-secondary and college practicals on stationary waves
