1. Superconducting material.
2. Galvanometer.
3. Electric Transformer.
4. Coolidge tube.
B) Compare between each pair of the fellowing :
1. Specific resistance and electrical conductivity from the point of view of the
measuring unit.
2. The ammeter and the ohmmeter from the point of view of scale graduation.
3. Laser beam and ordinary light beam from the point of view of collimation while
propagation.
C) Three light radiations with differnt colors and intensities are used in a photoelectric
effect experiment: a- Yellow light beam with frequency 5.5×10 14 Hz and medium
