Certificat
e
• This is to certify that the project work in Physics titled “Physics
Investigatory Project” has been carried out by Priyanshu Mukherjee
of XII B
• Under the supervision and guidance of –Mr. AK Mahapatra(PGT
Physics)
TOPI
C
• Choose a specific position for the source and mount it using a holder, make
sure it is stable.
• Select the bulb with the lowest power rating and connect it to the
holder as shown in the figure.
• Connect the LDR, battery(6V) and the multimeter in series.
• Set the multimeter to ohm section and select suitable range and
measure the resistance with a bulb on.
• Similarly switch to current section and move to micro ampere in
the multimeter. This gives the value of the current.
• Repeat these steps with different power sources at different distances and
note down observations
Observations
Application :
-
• Lead sulfide (PbS) and indium antimonide (InSb) LDRs are used for the
mid infrared spectral region. GeCu photoconductors are among the
best farinfrared detectors available, and are used for infrared
astronomy and infrared spectroscopy and much more.
Conclusio
n
• The LDR resistance decreases with increase in intensity of light
and hence there is an increase in the flow of current.
• There is an increase in the current as the distance from the source
decreases.
• The intensity decreases as the distance from the source increases
• The error lies within the experimental limit
