Physics Lab Kit 2

Semester 2 - Electricity, Magnetism, Optics, and Radiation

Description

Our team of faculty and staff worked together to develop a set of experiments that can be performed with minimal equipment while teaching the core principles of physics. These labs mirror the work performed in a typical first year physics course. Minimal equipment (smartphone, computer, and common household items) from the student will be needed.

 

Each Semester Lab Kit Includes:

  • Box of Lab Equipment (for one student/group)
  • Digital Access to...
    • Demonstration Videos for each Lab
    • Lab Setup and Procedure Instructions
    • Lab Report Templates

Labs Included:

  • Introduction to Lab Tools
  • Electric Field Mapping
  • Resistance and Resistors
  • Ohm's Law
  • Kirchhoff's Law
  • RC Circuits
  • Magnetic Fields
  • Inverse-Square Law of Light
  • Snell's Law
  • Lenses
  • Diffraction/Interference
  • LED Spectroscopy
  • Radioactive Decay
