Use of multimeter Aim Use of multimeter to see the unidirectional flow of current in case of a diode and an LED and check whether a given electronic component (e.g., diode) is in working order. Apparatus and Material Required Principle Diode: A diode is a two-terminal semiconductor device that allows current to flow in only one…
To draw the I-V characteristic curves of a p-n junction in forward bias and reverse bias.
To determine the focal length of a convex mirror using the convex lens.
Refractive index of a liquid Aim To find the refractive index of a liquid using convex lens and plane mirror. Apparatus and Material Required Principle A real and inverted image coincides with the object placed on the principal focus point of a convex lens when a plane mirror placed horizontally below the lens. The rays from…
Aim To assemble a household circuit comprising three bulbs, three (on/off) switches, a fuse and a power source. Apparatus and Material Required Three bulbs (12 W, 220 V each), three (on/off) switches, socket, a fuse of 1.0 A, plug, flexible connecting wire, main switch. Principle If \(P_1\), \(P_2\), \(P_3\), \(P_4\), \(P_5\), … \(P_n\) be the power…
Lateral Deviation of a Light Beam Aim To observe refraction and lateral deviation of a beam of light incident obliquely on a glass slab. Apparatus and Material Required Principle A ray of light incident on a rectangular glass slab bends at the interface of two optical media, here, air and the glass. The emerging ray out…
