Objectives of the Physics lab
a) Safety Precautions:
1) The first rule is to behave responsibly in the laboratory at all times. Students are
expected to listen to and follow all instructions given by the laboratory instructor.
This includes all safety precautions and guidelines.
2) When your teacher is showing you lab equipment, listen carefully as some of the
equipment can be dangerous, highly sensitive, and expensive.
3) The students in the physics lab are expected to exercise common sense judgment
when working with the laboratory equipment.
4) Be careful when operating electrical equipment. The lab working surface,
equipment, and your hands should be dry. Check all cords and plugs and make sure
that they are in good condition before using them. Care must be taken when
working with exposed or broken wires and insulation in poor condition.
a) Safety Precautions (contd.)
5) It is important to note that all the electrical equipment must be turned off and unplugged
before leaving your workplace.
Always be sure that electrical equipment is in the “turn off" position before plugging the wire
into the socket as well as before removing it from the socket.
Do not grab wires to unplug equipment. Use the plug to disconnect the equipment from the
socket.
6) Use extreme care when handling sharp and sensitive apparatus.
7) When you are working with an open flame or heating materials, never leave them
unattended.
Hot plates remain hot for several minutes after they are turned off.
Never touch the surface of a hot plate/bulb.
8) The direct or the reflected laser rays should never be pointed into the eyes as this might
cause permanent damage to the eye.
9) Tie back all long hair and remove dangling jewelry during the lab.
10) Wash your hands after each lab experiment.
b) Do’s:
1) Teachers expect students to be calm and disciplined. Your behaviour and attitude in
the lab should be excellent. The safety of you and other persons depend on it.
2) There is always plenty to do in the lab, so teachers expect you to arrive on time and
to use your time well.
3) Listen to all instructions given by your teacher and follow them carefully.
4) Read your lab assignments before coming to class. Prepare your pre-lab write-up
before entering the lab.
5) Familiarize yourself with all lab procedures before doing the lab exercise.
6) Get a signature in your observation notebook from your teacher before leaving the
lab.
7) Perform only those experiments on which you have been instructed.
8) It is your responsibility to take care of lab equipment, use it only as instructed, and
report any damages to your teacher or technician.
9) Clean and dry your lab work area at the close of the lab period. Return all
equipment and materials to the proper place.
10)Use ballpoint pens, not pencils for noting down the observations.
11)Be honest. All procedures and experimental data whether you regard them as
"good" or "bad" at the time should be recorded in the lab notebook.
12)While leaving the lab, Please take your personal stuff with you (like backpacks,
purses, calculators, keys, etc).
c) Don’ts
Never attempt to touch the equipment or to do the experiment on your own until your teacher
demonstrates it.
1) Don’t eat or drink in the lab room at any time.
2) Don’t chew gum or eat candy during lab exercises.
3) Don’t be mischievous in the lab.
4) Never remove any pages from the observation notebook and record.
5) Never use electrical equipment around water.
6) Don’t work in the lab alone.
7) Don’t leave the bags and books in the passageways/corridors.
8) Don’t move the laser while it is switched on.
9) Don’t touch the surface of the grating with your fingers.
10) Do not borrow a calculator, scale, pencil, eraser, or any such items from others.
11) Do not move from your allotted working table.
12) Do not consult with others. If you get any doubt, report to the teachers for clarification.
d) Experiment based on specific instructions:
-Result: Discuss your result for the probable errors you come across
while experimenting.
