Seven experiments and 40 activities are presented in this handbook. The experiments are related to Young's experiment, electric forces, forces on currents, electron-beam tubes, and wave modulation and communication. The activities are primarily concerned with aspects of scattered and polarized light, colors, image formation, lenses, cameras,…

The first trial edition of the Australian Science Education Project unit introducing the concepts of electrical charge consists of a student workbook, question booklet and a response sheet, and a booklet containing answers to the questions in the workbook and question booklet. The teacher's guide outlines the unit, lists suggested teaching…

Presents a table cross-referencing 12 physics laboratory manuals by topics. Topic areas include measurement and techniques, mechanics, molecular physics, waves and optics, electricity and magnetism, and quantum physics. (JN)

This laboratory manual consists of three major sections. The first section deals with Direct Current (DC) fundamentals, and is divided into 17 phases leading towards the design and analysis of a DC ammeter and a DC voltmeter. Each phase consists of facts and problems to be learned in the phase, preliminary discussion, laboratory operation…

Describes a circuit by which capacitance and the dielectric constant can be measured. Shows the circuit diagram and the method to calculate these constants. (YP)
