Synopsis

This book introduces readers to experimental work in physics and demonstrates how to perform accurate measurements. Beginning with essential skills like measuring length and time, it provides clear instructions for determining density, moments of inertia, and other key physical properties. The author also explains how to calibrate instruments and correct for errors, ensuring precise and reliable results. The book's approach is hands-on, with step-by-step guidance for each exercise. It is a valuable resource for students seeking to develop their experimental abilities and deepen their understanding of physics. The insights gained from these experiments will serve as a solid foundation for further advancements in the field.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Physics, desire to become acquainted with the principles and methods of accurate measurement. The large and increasing number of students, who have to be taught simultaneously in a Physical Laboratory, renders it necessary that the instructions supplied should be fairly complete ;and that the exercises should be of such a nature as to enable the teachers easily to check the accuracy of the results obtained. The exercises described in this volume have been worked through by several hundred students of theO wens College who were preparing for the ordinary degree of B.S c, and the experience thus gained has been utilised to improve the descriptions and methods adopted. It is hoped therefore that the volume will also prove useful in other laboratories. We have not aimed at completeness, being convinced that a student learns more by carefully working through a few selected and typical exercises, than by hurrying through large number, which are often but slight modifications of each other. The guiding principle we have adopted in our teaching htis been to attach greater importance to neat and accurate work, properly recorded, than to the number of experiments which a student performs. All Note-books are carefully kept, no slovenly work is allowed to pass, and each exercise is repeated until satisfactory results have been obtained.
