reflector
Detect location of zero amplitude using C.R.O. with
time base off
Measure distance between two nodes = /2
Magnetic field Magnetic flux density Calibrated Hall probe (broad surface of
strength (magnetic flux strength) semiconductor wafer of Hall probe is perpendicular
to the magnetic field B , p.d. V is measured with
voltmeter)
B' V '
=
Calibration: Bo V o
Precaution:Remove all magnetic materials near
apparatus

CAL Physics
Liquid Use p = h ρ g
Remove the heating source and allow a longer time for thermal equilibrium
before reading is taken.
3. To produce light Photodiode or laser or bulb with lens to produce narrow beam
To detect light Lightmeter or LDR with electric circuit

in a tube
12. To produce Vary frequency from SG from zero until f = fo ,natural frequency .
resonance in Maximum amplitude of vibration is seen with eyes.
stretched wire/string
13. To produce Vary length of tube above water,until loudest sound is heard.
resonance in tube,eg
long tube partially
immersed in water.

7. To handle with radioactive Use tongs, keep at least an arm’s length distance, source is
substance stored in lead lined container immediately when it is not in use,
do not direct the source at others.(note: wear lead suits
unacceptable)
8. Handling the laser source Do not look directly into the laser source. Do not point the source
at others’ eyes
9. To measure extension of a wire Check uniformity using micrometer, check if it is free from
kinks(smooth out using blocks of wood)
10. To produce stationary wave on A white card is placed behind the vibrating string for a clearer
vibrating string observation of maximum amplitude
11. Pressure too low or too high stand behind safety screen/wear protective goggles–
- may cause implosion or container should be strong enough to withstand high /low
explosion pressure
Pressure allow time for pressure to stabilise
