Measure a DC and AC voltage by a cathode ray oscilloscope.                      

Apparatus  Cathode ray oscilloscope          •     DC voltmeter        •      AC voltmeter step – down transformer battery          •      rheostat       •       key and connecting wires. Theory               The voltage required to produce one small division of deflection of the light spot on the screen of an oscilloscope is called its sensitivity.              When an oscilloscope is switched on a spot […]

Experiment # 16

Determine the atomic weight of covalent metal M. When 4g. of its hydroxide (MOH) are dissolved per dm3 in the given solution, 0.1M HCL is given. Principle It is an acid-base titration because MOH is a base which can be use against an acid. Equation. MOH + HCL → MCl + H2O Mole ratio. 1: 1 […]

EXPERIMENT 15

To study the variation of photoelectric current with intensity of light APPARATUS: THEORY The intensity of light is equal to the light energy falling per second on a unit area held perpendicular to the path of light. It is measured in watts per square meter (W/m2). The intensity pf light form a point source of […]
