FF10-11
Objectives
Students at the end of the course should be able to:
- Explain some physical phenomena.
- Use different instruments in measuring and draw graphs correctly.
- Determine values experimentally and compare it with truth values (theoretical value).
- Improve their skills in data analysis and self-expression through reports.
Applications
- Hooke's Law and determining the spring stiffness coefficient
- Determining the surface tension for some liquids by using a metal ring
- Determining the resultant force of a system of two forces.
- Determining the viscosity coefficient of a viscous liquid by using the Stokes law.
- Archimedes’ Principle and its applications.
- Measuring the coefficient of linear expansion for given materials.
- Determining the focal length of a converging lens.
- Determining the specific heat of a solid object.
- Determining the refraction index of a glass.
