Please choose one person to be responsible for each section. If other people help, it is
important to mention their names in the headers. Each section of the report will be evaluated
separately (over 22.5 ). The total score of this report is 90 points while 10 points are evaluated
during the lab session. In total it will be 100 points. Please feel free to add diagrams and graphs
when necessary but keep the font 12. If you use any external resources make sure to cite it
properly and add to the bibliography
Thank you and good luck !
Section 1: Introduction & Theory
Please explain the objective of this laboratory experiment and the theory behind the work you did during the
experiment. Be concise and comprehensive. Do not forget to mention the relevant equations with brief
explanations.
Section 1: Introduction & Theory (graphs)
Please place the graphs or schemes you need within this box. Always add caption to explain the figure and
clearly number the figures to refer to it later within your report.
Section 2: Experimental Work
Please explain the setup of the experiment and the procedure. In this section, the experimental findings should be
mentioned in clear charts and graphs. (Hint: it is very exciting to see the experimental recordings of the tortion
reproduced programmatically).
Section 2: Experimental Work(graphs)
Please place the graphs and charts you need within this box.
Section 3: Data Analysis
Calculate and tabulate your experimental findings. Using the theoretical methods you learned make theoretical
predictions. It is also recommended to include graphs and charts that compare the theoretical predictions to the
experimental findings. Highlight the similarities and differences. Do not discuss the problems with the setup in this
section.
Section 3: Data Analysis(graphs)
Please place the graphs and charts you need within this box.
Section 4: Conclusion
Please explain the results of the experiment and its precision. Mention the sources of error in the setup. Most
importantly, propose a way to minimize the error. It is a good idea to do research and propose modifications to
the setup that can improve the setup. Do not forget to cite and add to the bibliography any external reference.
Section 4: Conclusion (graphs and bibliography)
Please also include the graphs and the bibliography here.
Appendix A:
You may add oversized graphs or plots that do not fit within the report here. It is an extra page you may use if
necessary.
