Kubic Bubbles Kit

• Build cubes, octahedrons, tetrahedrons and prisms - then dip them in soap-glycerin to produce minimum energy surfaces.
• Study surface tension and demonstrate light refraction.
• Soap film contained by a three dimensional framework will automatically arrange itself so that it has the smallest possible surface area. The fundamental shapes have the minimum surface area bounded by that framework. Soap films can therefore be used to give a visual answer to some complex mathematical problems.
• Located in L02, section D1. Soap solution located in L01, section B5.
