List of experiments for final physics practical exam 2023 - 2024

1. Determine the resistance of a given wire using ohm’s law
and hence determine resistivity of the material.
2. Determine the resistance per unit length of a given wire by
plotting potential difference versus current graph.
3. Determine the resistance of a given galvanometer by half
deflection method and find its figure of merit.
4. Convert given galvanometer into voltmeter. Given: figure of
merit of galvanometer K= 20 x 10-6 A/div. Resistance of
galvanometer G=…………. Ω
5. Determine the frequency of alternating current using
Sonometer and an electromagnet. Given: mass per unit length of
wire m = …………kgm-1.Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 ms-2.
6. Determine the focal length of concave mirror by finding the
values of v from different values of u.
7. Determine the focal length of convex mirror using convex lens.
8. Determine the focal length of convex lens by plotting a graph of
u versus v.
9. Determine the angle of minimum deviation for a given glass
prism by plotting a graph of angle of incidence versus angle of
deviation.
10. Draw I-V characteristic curve of a p-n junction diode in
forward bias and hence find cut-in voltage.
