The ripple tank is usually illuminated from above, so that the light shines through the water. The ripples on the water show up as shadows on the screen underneath the tank. All the basic properties of waves, including reflection, refraction, interference and diffraction, can be demonstrated.

A ripple tank is a transparent shallow tray of water.The ripples on the water show up as shadows on the screen underneath the tank.The tank is shallow transparent tray of water with sloping side. The slopes prevent waves reflecting off the sides of the tank.
