Contents:
Unit 1: Experiments Based on Levers
Experiment 1.1: To determine the mass of the given metre scale
Experiment 1.2: To determine the weight of a given object using a metre scale
Unit 2: Pulley System
Experiment 2: To determine the mechanical advantage (MA) and velocity ratio (VR) of a given pulley system
Unit 3: Refraction through a Glass Slab
Experiment 3: To trace the path of different rays of light refracting through a rectangular glass slab at different angles of incidence. Measure the angles of incidence, refraction and emergence. Also measure the lateral displacement
Unit 4: Optics (Refraction of Light through Lenses)
Experiment 4.1: To determine the focal length of a convex lens using distant object method
Experiment 4.2: To determine the focal length of a convex lens using a plane mirror and a needle
Experiment 5: To determine the focal length of a convex lens using u-v method and the lens formula
Unit 5: Refraction of Light Rays through a Prism
Experiment 6: To trace the path of a ray of light passing through a glass prism and to show that
i + e = A + d and A = r1 + r2
Experiment 7: To trace the path of a ray of light incident normally (∠i = 0°) on different types of prisms (Angle of prism, ∠A = 60°, 45° and 90°) and measure the angle of deviation d in each case
Unit 6: Heat Transfer
Experiment 8: To calculate the specific heat of the material of the given calorimeter from the temperature readings and masses of cold water, warm water and its mixture taken in the calorimeter
Experiment 9: To determine the specific heat of a metal by the method of mixtures
Experiment 10: To determine the specific latent heat of ice
Unit 7: Experiments Based on Electricity
Experiment 11: To verify Ohm's law and hence determine the value of an unknown resistance
Experiment 12: To set up a model of domestic electric wiring circuit including main wiring circuit and to study the functions of switches and fuses
