EXPERIMENT NO-1 AIM- To determine the frequency of A. C. mains by using an electric vibrator. APPARATUS- Electric vibrator, table lamp, pulley, weight box, fishing cord, a. c. source. THEORY- when a cord of mass per unit length m is connected to the vibrating rod of the vibrator and stretched with a tension T, the cord vibrators in segments. If the length of the cord is then adjusted until the nodes are clearly marked, the frequency of the stretched string is the same as of the vibrating rod which is vibrating with the frequency of A.C. Mains. Its frequency of vibrating is given by ÃŽ ·=12lTm And this is also frequency of A.C. mains. FIGURE- PROCEDURE- 1. Switch on current and†¦show more content†¦Here the leakage current flows in the circuit. This current is known as reverse saturation current. It increases rapidly in the initial stage due to an exponential decrease of diffusion current with increasing reverse voltage. CIRCUIT DIAGRAM- A V A V PROCEDURE- SEMICONDOUTOR DIODE: - FORWARD BIAS: 1. Make the connection as shown in the circuit. 2. Vary the inbuilt d. c. supply voltage in steps of 0.1V and note down corresponding voltmeter and ammeter readings. 3. Plot the graph of voltage (on x-axis) Vs current I (on y-axis). REVERSE BIAS: 1. Make the connection as shown in the circuit. 2. Put the voltmeter range switch to 50V and ammeter range switch to 200  µA. 3. Vary the supply voltage in steps of 1V and note down corresponding voltmeter and ammeter readings. 4. Plot the graph of voltage (on x-axis) Vs current I (on y-axis).

It should be rigorous and carefully designed even if the experiment is dealing with a shallow thing. As simple as the experiment of detecting Friction Force between an object and surface, the experiment still has to follow several stages in order to make the conclusion accurate. First of all, every physical exam will begin with a hypothesis. We must figure out what we are going to test about duringRead MoreThe Physics Of An Experiment1509 Words   |  7 Pagesin the EPR paper and later more eloquently describe by David Bohm. In the paper by Bohm, he shows how one could conceive of an experiment to mirror the conceptual situation put forth in the EPR paper, by examining the dissociation of a diatomic molecule whose total spin angular momentum is zero. For example, the hydrogen molecule into two hydrogen atoms. In the experiment, the hydrogen atoms would separate after interaction, in different free directions. It is here that an experimenter would measureRead MorePhysics : Mechanical Physics Of Heat Experiment808 Words   |  4 PagesEquivalent of Heat Experiment Hypothesis: To verify the relationship between mechanical energy and heat; that is, to find the relationship between energy associated with motion and the energy transfer between objects at different temperatures. Equipment: capped cardboard Aluminum shot Thermometer Ice bath Metal cup Procedure: †¢ Measure out a small beaker of aluminum shots. (The shots should be chilled some before the experiment starts to helpRead MoreLab Experiment : Physics Chemistry1031 Words   |  5 Pages Chemistry Honors Lab 1: Measurements Theory The overall objective of this lab experiment is to learn about measurements. Most to all experiments and labs require some form of measurements. Because there are many various kinds of measurements, it is important to be aware of the different factors of each measurement involved with the current lab experiment. It is also important to have a general understanding of them because they will need to be used in calculationsRead MorePhysics Of Quantum Mechanical Experiments1337 Words   |  6 PagesWe’ve already discussed some of the experimental phenomena that inspire competing interpretations or theories of what’s going on in the real world during quantum-mechanical experiments. (In brief: Observing microscopic particles seems to either: cause them to randomly take one result or the other; create a branching world for every possible outcome; or require hidden variables and allow for faster-than-light, nonlocal communication. Particles seem not to take one path, not t he other, not both, andRead MorePhysics : Science And Volcano Experiment1127 Words   |  5 Pages1. Topic; science/volcano experiment a. Teams will be investigating a volcano of their choosing, creating a model of the volcano, and writing a one page report on their findings. The team will come together to write a 1-2 page report and create a volcanic model based on the information they’ve gathered. The roles and responsibilities that students will have include the following: (1). Teammate 1 will be a researcher and Praiser. He/she will verbally express appreciation for teammates’ ideas andRead MorePhysics Of Hot Air Balloon Experiment1808 Words   |  8 PagesPhysics The following report explains the results of a model hot air balloon experiment that replicates a previous incident in which the temperature in the envelope was heated to a point until it was burned. After assessing the researched and calculated data, the assertion of the â€Å"air in the balloon becoming too hot† to lift the mass will be validated. The physics related to the operation of hot air balloons is essentially the use of hot air to create a buoyant force and generate lift. A hot airRead MorePhysics Experiment On Diodes And Bridge Rectifiers Essay1239 Words   |  5 PagesEngineering Laboratory Experiment Report #2,3, 4 Experiment # 2 - Semiconductor Diodes Experiment # 3 - Diodes and Bridge Rectifiers Experiment # 4 – Zener Diode Voltage Regulator; Diode Clippers and Clampers Author: Joshua Lewis Date: October 18th, 2016 This report was submitted in compliance with UNCC POLICY 407 THE CODE OF STUDENT ACADEMIC INTEGRITY, Revised November 6, 2014 (http://legal.uncc.edu/policies/up-407) ___JL____.

From skyscrapers to supermarkets, beams are all around us. Knowing how these beams will react under certain weight and conditions will determine exactly what type of material they should be made of as well as what their dimensions shouldRead MoreThe History of Physics Essay1534 Words   |  7 PagesThe History of Physics In order to attempt to trace the origins of the modern science that we now refer to as â€Å"physics,† we must begin with the origin of the term itself. Taken from the Greek word â€Å"physika† meaning growth or nature, physics most obviously began as the intelligent study of the human environment (Webster 393). From superstition and religious practices, the foundation of all other sciences was born. These concepts have subsequently grown into what we regard
