Q. What is the jar made of?
A. Hi Fran, thank you for your question. The jar is made from glass.
This pump plate and bell jar can be used to demonstrate the nature of sound waves by showing that sound can not travel in a vacuum. As air is pumped out of the jar the sound from the bell becomes fainter and fainter until it can no longer be heard.
