Experiment: Determination of the Velocity of Light (230 V, 50/60 Hz)

Experiment: Determination of the Velocity of Light (230 V, 50/60 Hz), 8000695 [UE4060100-230], Velocity of light
2,560.25
Objective: Determine the velocity of light from the transit time of short light pulses

The fact that light is propagated at a finite speed can be demonstrated by a simple transit time measurement. This is achieved by using very short light pulses of only a few nanoseconds duration and determining the time for them to travel out and back over a distance of several metres, which is measured by an oscilloscope. From the transit time and the distance from the transmitter to a triple-prism reflector one can calculate the velocity of light.
