Physics Laboratory (PH1P001)

A basic physics laboratory course for first-year (B.Tech.) students that includes experiments on elasticity, classical mechanics, electromagnetic theory, and optics.

In Autumn 2023, I was involved with demonstrations and viva-voce of the following experiments:

1) Determination of wavelength of (red) light using the Michealson Interferometer.
2) Determination of the wavelengths of violet, blue, and yellow lines in the spectrum of a Hg lamp, using a diffraction grating.

In addition to the laboratory manual supplied to the students, they are also advised to go through The Feynman Lectures on Physics.
