EXPERIMENT NO.1
Aim: to determine the force constant or spring constant (stiffness constant k) by using oscillation
method.
Apparatus and material required: A light weight helical spring with a pointer attached at the lower
end and a hook, A rigid support, hanger and five slotted weight of 10 gram Clamp stand, A
measuring scale and Stop watch.
Principle:
The relationship between time period (T) and spring constant is given by
𝑚
T= 2𝜋√ 𝑘 Where m is the load of the object. If spring
has large mass itself then expression change to
𝑚𝑜+𝑚
T= 2𝜋 ( ) 1/2 (2)
𝑘
Where mo. and m are the effective masses of the spring system.
One can easily eliminate the term m0 of the spring system appearing in
equation (2) by substituting two different object (load) of masses m1 and
m2 and measuring their respective period of oscillation T1 and T2 .Then
𝑚𝑜+𝑚1
T1= 2𝜋( )1/2 (3)
𝐾
𝑚𝑜+𝑚2
And T2 =2𝜋( )1/2 (4)
𝐾
Eliminate the term mo. from equation and above equation and subtract the
equation 4 from 3, we get
1. Suspend the helical spring SA (having pointer P and the hanger H at its free end A),
from a rigid support, as shown in figure (1).
2. Set the measuring scale, close to the spring vertically. Take care that the pointer P
moves freely over the scale without touching it.
3. Suspended the load or slotted weight with mass m1 on the hanger gently. Wait till the
pointer comes to rest. This is the equilibrium position for the given load. Pull the load
slightly downwards and then release it gently so that it is set into oscillation in a
vertical plane about its rest (or equilibrium) position. The rest position (X) of the
pointer P on the scale is the reference or mean position for the given load. Start the
Stop watch as the pointer P just crosses its mean position (say, upward to downwards)
and simultaneously being to count the oscillations.
4. Keep on counting the oscillation as the pointer crosses the mean position (x) in the
same direction. Stop the watch after n (say, 10to 2o) oscillation are complete. Note
the time (t) taken by the oscillating load for n oscillations.
5. Repeat this observation at least thrice and in each occasion note the time taken for
the same number of oscillation (n). Find the mean time (t1), for n oscillation and
compute the time for one oscillation, i.e., the time period T1 (=t1/n) of oscillating
helical spring with load m1.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for two more slotted weights.
7. Calculate time period of oscillation T=t/n for each weight and tabulate your
observations.
8. Compute the value of spring constant (K1, K2 and K3) for each load and find out the
mean value of spring constant K of the given helical spring.
Observation:
Table: Measuring the time period T of oscillation of helical spring with load.
Substitute the value of m1, m2, m3 and T1, T2, T3 in above equation. We get

Procedure:
1. The bar pendulum is suspended vertically about the knife edge from the
hole nearest to one end.
2. The knife edge is made horizontal by means of levelling screws.
3. A telescope is focused on the lower end of the pendulum. The bar is
allowed to oscillate through small angle with knife edge passing through
the hole no (1) and the time for 30 oscillation is noted with the help of stop
watch. The time period of thirty oscillation is calculated.
4. Then the bar pendulum is suspended successively from its other hole and
the corresponding time for 30 oscillation is noted. This distance of each
hole from any one end of the bar pendulum is also noted. Further the
position of C.G, is determined by balancing the pendulum about a knife
edge.
5. A graph is plotted between the measured distance and the corresponding
time period.

Theory: when a stretched wire is set in vibrations, the frequency n of the
fundamental note is produced by it, is given by
For a give wire, m (mass per unit length) is constant, and wire is stretched under
given tension i.e., T is constant, i.e., if m and T are kept constant then equation
(1) gives
n 1/l or n l = constant
Hence if we plot a graph between n and 1/l the graph will be a straight line.

EXPERIMENT NO. 5
Practical Name: Determination of refractive index using
spectrometer device.
Aim: To calculate the refractive index of material of prism by using a spectrometer device.
Refractive index μ of the prism is given by the following formula:
Apparatus Required: Spectrometer, prism, mercury vapor lamp, spirit level and reading lens
( )
Formula Used: Then μ =
( )
Where A = angle of the prism, δm = angle of minimum deviation.
Procedure: The following initial adjustments of the spectrometer are made first.
• The spectrometer and the prism table are arranged in horizontal position by using the
leveling Screws.
• The telescope is turned towards a distant object to receive a clear and sharp image.
• The slit is illuminated by a mercury vapour lamp and the slit and the collimator are
suitably
Adjusted to receive a narrow, vertical image of the slit.
• The telescope is turned to receive the direct ray, so that the vertical slit coincides with the
Vertical crosswire.
• The telescope is turned to receive the direct ray, so that the vertical slit coincides with the
Vertical crosswire.
• Determine the least count of the spectrometer.
• Place the prism on the prism table with its refracting angle A towards the collimator and with
It’s refracting edge A at the center. In this case some of the light falling on each face will be
Reflected and can be received with the help of the telescope.
• The telescope is moved to one side to receive the light reflected from the face AB and the cross
Wires are focused on the image of the slit. The readings of the two Vernier’s are taken.
• The telescope is moved in other side to receive the light reflected from the face AC and again
the
Cross wires are focused on the image of the slit. The readings of the two Vernier’s are taken.
• The angle through which the telescope is moved; or the difference in the two positions gives
Twice of the refracting angle A of the prism. Therefore half of this angle gives the refracting
Angle of the prism.
• Place the prism so that its center coincides with the center of the prism table and light falls on
One of the polished faces and emerges out of the other polished face, after refraction. In this
Position the spectrum of light is obtained.
• The spectrum is seen through the telescope and the telescope is adjusted for minimum
Deviation position for a particular color (wavelength) in the following way: Set up telescope at
a particular color and rotate the prism table in one direction, of course the telescope should be
Moved in such a way to keep the spectral line in view. By doing so a position will come where
a
Spectral line recede in opposite direction although the rotation of the table is continued in the
Same direction. The particular position where the spectral line begins to recede in opposite
Direction is the minimum deviation position for that colour. Note the readings of two
Vernier’s.
• Remove the prism table and bring the telescope in the line of the collimator. See the slit directly
Through telescope and coincide the image of slit with vertical crosswire. Note the readings of
The two Vernier’s.
• The difference in minimum deviation position and direct position gives the angle of minimum
Deviation for that color.
• The same procedure is repeated to obtain the angles of minimum deviation for the other colors.

Practical Name: tension of water by capillary rise method
Apparatus:
T= (1)
For water the value of angle of contact θ is very small.
Hence cosθ = 1 (θ = o; cosθ = 1)
T= (2)
Where,
T= is the surface tension of the water.
r is the radius of the capillary tube.
h is the rise of water in capillary tube above the free
surface of the water.
D is the density of the water at room temperature.
g is the acceleration due to gravity.
Procedure:
(1) Clean the capillary tube and flat bottom glass dish with
alkaline solution (caustic soda) and the with water and
dry them.
(2) Fill the glass dish with water (free from dirt and gases)
and place it on the adjustable stand whose height can be
adjusted. Make it base horizontal by levelling screw.
(3) Mount the capillary tube C whose diameter are ranging
from 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm on a glass plate with the help of
rubber bands. Set the glass plate vertically over the dish
containing water by holding it in a clamp stand and
adjust the position of adjustable stand so that ends of
capillary tubes are well within water as shown in figure.
(4) Mount a fine needle on the glass plate which is parallel
to the capillary tube with its tips just touches the water
surface as shown in figure.
Calculations:
We have the relation
T= ===================================================================================
Precaution:
(a) Capillary tube should be clean and liquid should
be free from dirt and grease.
(b) Capillary tube and needle should be set vertical.
(c) Microscope screw should be moved in lower
direction only to avoid backlash error.
(d) Do not use distilled water.
(e) Internal diameter of capillary tubes should be
measured along two mutually perpendicular
directions.
(f) Capillary tubes should be of uniform bores.
(g) Temperatures of the water should be measured in
the beginning and also at the end as surface
tension is very sensitive to the temperature.

Boyles Law States……. That at constant temperature the volume of a fixed
mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.
P α 1/V
This proves Boyles law as it is a straight line graph through the origin. That graph is P
α 1/V
Precautions:
1) After changing the pressure of the trapped air wait a minute or two before
reading the pressure or volume, to allow the air to reach room temperature.
This is necessary because when the air is compressed or expanded there may
be slight changes in temperature which will affect t the volume of gas )due
to expansion or contraction)
2) When reading volume make sure your eye is level with the Mercury
Meniscus.
3) Make sure air is connected tightly to oil reservoir in let.
4) If a hand suction pump is available you will be able to reduce the pressure of
the gas below atmospheric pressure. You can then take a future series of
values of p and V include them in the table and graph.

Procedure:
Fill the water in beaker. Place an immersion heater in the beaker and
keep the thermometer as well as the thermocouple in the beaker too.
Connect the output of the signal conditioner with the DPM by a patch
cord (between T2 and T3). Switch ON the power. Put the toggle switch
towards mV side. Set gain adjustment pot at anticlockwise i.e set
minimum gain. Short the input (Thermocouple) of the setup with a patch

Pullinger's Apparatus
Construction
Working
The experimental rod is taken and its length is measured (say) L. The rod
is placed inside the cylinder and the initial temperature of the rod is taken
(say)θ1. Now the spherometer is rotated downward when it just touches the
rod. Initial reading on spherometer is taken and spherometer is rotated
upward to give a small space for expansion of the rod. The steam is
passed into the cylinder as steam is passed the reading in thermometer
rise. When the thermometer shows constant reading 8-10 the final
temperature of the rod is taken (say)θ2.The spherometer is rotated
downward when it touches the rod and the final reading of spherometer is
taken. let initial spherometer reading is R1and final reading is R2. Thenthe
increase in radius is R2 - R1.
We have
Linearexpansivity=increaseinlengthoriginallength×riseintemperatureL
inearexpansivity=increaseinlengthoriginallength×riseintemperature
∴α=R2−R1R1(θ2−θ1)∴α=R2−R1R1(θ2−θ1)
By finding values of R1, R2,θ2,θ1θ2,θ1and linear expansivity is determined.
l2=l1(1+αΔθ)l2=l1(1+αΔθ)
Where αα is the coefficient of linear expansion of the rod,
l2−l1=l1(αΔθ)l2−l1=l1(αΔθ)
Due to increase in temperature, the rod tries to expand but will not be able
to, to expand due to rigid ends. As a result, a force or tension is produced
which would compress the rod. From the definition of Young’s modulus of
elasticity, we have,
Υ=TA×l1l2−l1=TA×l1l1αΔθ=TAαΔθΥ=TA×l1l2−l1=TA×l1l1αΔθ=TAαΔθ
Or, T=ΥAαΔθT=ΥAαΔθ
Bimetallic Thermostat
Bimetallic strip (a) At normal temperature, (b) At higher temperature
Differential expansion
When metal rod of different metal are heated to the same range of
temperature their expansion are different i.e. differential expansion.
Let us consider two rod B and C having length and with linear expansivity
and respectively. Both the rods are heated so that the final length of the rod
are and respectively at the temperature.
We have,
l2=l1(1+αΔθ)l2=l1(1+αΔθ)
Δθ=θ2−θ1Δθ=θ2−θ1
Increase in length of rod ββ
For equal difference in length
l2−l1=l1αΔθl2−l1=l1αΔθ
or, l1αΔθ=l′1α′Δθl1αΔθ=l1′α′Δθ
or, l1α=l′1α′l1α=l1′α′
or, l1l′2=α′αl1l2′=α′α
This is the constant difference in length in all temperature.
Liquid does not have fixed shape so, we do not take linear and superficial
expansion in the case of liquid instead we take cubical expansion.
Let us consider liquid contain in a vessel having an original volume up to
level A suppose the system is heated at first. After heating the expansion of
vessel takes place and the level of a liquid decreases to point B. After
sometimes liquid gets heated the expansion of a liquid is greater than that
of solid. So, finally liquid reaches C.
