About This Product
Of the optics experiment kits for schools that deal with colour rather than ray paths, this one centres on additive mixing: each source is identified alone, then pairs and all three beams are overlapped and the results recorded. Group demonstrations, science exhibitions and Light And Optics practicals all use it to turn textbook colour diagrams into something students can watch.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What colours form when two RGB beams overlap? Red and green form yellow, green and blue form cyan, and blue and red form magenta.
Q2. Does the kit need electricity? Yes. The light sources need a suitable electrical supply, and the unit should be disconnected before filters, lamps or connections are changed.
