Apparatus
Vernier caliper, metallic cylinder and rectangular block
Principle
Vernier caliper consists of a metal scale graduated in mm which forms the main scale. It has a �xedjaw J1 at one end and a movable jaw J2 provided with a vernier scale which slides over the mainscale. The least count of the vernier is the smallest distance that can be measured with it and it canbe calculated using the equation,
Least count of vernier (LC) =Value of one main scale division (MSD)
Number of divisions on the vernier scale(1)
Total reading =MSR + (V SR× LC) (2)
where MSR is the main scale reading and VSR is the vernier scale reading.

If l is the length, b is the breadth and t is the thickness of the rectangular block,
Volume of the rectangular block, V = lbt (4)
Procedure
The value of one main scale division and number of divisions on the vernier scale are noted. Theleast count of the vernier is calculated using equation (1).

The given cylinder is gently gripped lengthwise between the jaws of the vernier caliper. The mainscale reading (MSR) just before the zero of the vernier scale is noted. The vernier scale reading(VSR) coinciding with some division on the main scale is also noted. The length of the cylinder isthen calculated using equation (2). The experiment is repeated �ve times and the average value ofthe length of the cylinder is calculated.

Screw Gauge
Exp. No: 2Date:
Aim
(i) To �nd the volume of the given wire by measuring its length and diameter
(ii) To �nd the volume of the given glass plate by measuring its thickness and area
Apparatus
Screw Gauge, metal wire and glass plate
Principle
Screw gauge works on the simple principle of converting small distances into larger ones by measuringthe rotation of the screw. When the head of the screw gauge is rotated, the distance moved by thescrew for every complete rotation is a constant called pitch of the screw.
Pitch of the screw gauge (P) =Distance moved
Number of rotations(1)
Least count of the screw gauge (LC) =Pitch (P)
Number of divisions on the head scale (N)(2)
Total reading = PSR + (Corrected HSR× LC) (3)
where PSR is the pitch scale reading and HSR is the head scale reading.
If l is the length of the wire and r is the radius of the wire,
Volume of the wire, V = πr2l (4)
If t is the thickness and A is the area of the glass plate,
Volume of the glass plate, V = At (5)
Procedure
The pitch, least count and zero error of the screw gauge are determined �rst. The head of the screwgauge is given six complete rotations and distance moved by head over the pitch scale is noted. Thepitch of the screw gauge is calculated using equation (1). The number of divisions on the head scaleis noted and least count of the screw gauge is calculated using equation (2).
To �nd the zero error, the screw head is rotated until the two plane faces are just in contact. Ifthe zero of the head scale coincides with the reference line on the pitch scale, the instrument has nozero error and hence, no zero correction. If the zero of the head scale is above the reference line (sayby 5 divisions), the zero error is -5 div and zero correction is +5 div. If the zero of the head scale isbelow the reference line (say by 5 divisions), the zero error is +5 div and zero correction is -5 div.

This correction is to be added to the observed head scale reading (HSR) when the measurement istaken.
To �nd the volume of the wire
The diameter of the wire is measured by gently gripping the wire between the plane faces of thescrew gauge. Pitch scale reading (PSR)just before the head of the screw gauge is noted. Head scalereading (HSR) coinciding with the reference line on the pitch scale is also noted. The diameter ofthe wire is then calculated using equation (3). The experiment is repeated �ve times and the averagevalue of the diameter of the wire is calculated. The half of the mean diameter gives the radius ofthe wire. The length of the wire is measured using a meter scale. The volume of the wire is thencalculated using equation (4).
To �nd the volume of the glass plate
The given glass plate is gently gripped between the plane faces of the screw gauge. The pitch scalereading and head scale reading are noted. The thickness of the glass plate is then calculated usingequation (3). The experiment is repeated �ve times and the average value of the thickness of theglass plate is calculated. To �nd the area of the glass plate, its outline is taken on a graph paperand the number of millimeter squares enclosed in it is counted. The volume of the glass plate is thencalculated using equation (5).
Result
Volume of the given wire = m3
Volume of the given glass plate = m3

Simple Pendulum
Exp. No: 3Date:
Aim
(i) To determine the acceleration due to gravity (g) at the place
(ii) To determine the length of the seconds pendulum from (l, T 2) graph
Apparatus
Simple pendulum, stop clock and meter scale
Principle
The simple pendulum consists of a small metallic bob suspended by a light string. The length of thependulum (l) is the distance between the centre of the bob and the point of suspension. The period(T) of the pendulum is the time taken to complete one oscillation. The relation between length ofthe pendulum, its period and acceleration due to gravity is given by
T = 2π

T 2 = 4π2

)(1)
Procedure
The radius of the bob is measured using vernier calipers. The length of the pendulum is equal to thedistance from the point of suspension to the top of the bob plus the radius of the bob. The lengthis initially adjusted to be 0.5 m. The time (t) for 20 oscillations is determined twice using a stopclock and mean value of t is calculated. The period T is calculated as T = t
20. The value of l
T 2 isdetermined. The experiment is repeated for l = 0.6 m, 0.7 m, 0.8 m, 0.9 m, 1 m and 1.1 m. Themean value of l
T 2 is calculated. The acceleration due to gravity (g) is calculated using equation (1).
(l, T 2) graph
A graph is plotted with l along X-axis and T 2 along Y-axis. This graph is called (l, T 2) graph. It canbe seen that (l, T 2) graph is a straight line and can be used to calculated the length corresponding toany period. For a seconds pendulum, T = 2 seconds and hence, T 2 = 4. The length correspondingto T 2 = 4 gives the length of the seconds pendulum.

(ii) To �nd the mass of the given body
Apparatus
Moment bar, weight hanger, slotted weights and unknown mass
Principle
Moment bar is a uniform bar like a meter scale. When the moment bar is in equilibrium under theaction of coplanar parallel forces, then according to principle of moments, the sum of anticlockwisemoments about any point equal to the sum of clockwise moments about the same point. The momentof a force about a given point is the product of the force and the perpendicular distance between thepoint and the line of action of the force.
Procedure
The centre of gravity (G) of the moment bar is determined �rst. The moment bar will remainhorizontal when supported at the centre of gravity. The position of G is noted by balancing themoment bar properly.
To �nd the mass of the moment bar
The moment bar is suspended at a point O on one side of the centre of gravity G as shown in Fig.1.The weight of the moment bar acts vertically downwards through the point G. A known weight Wis suspended from a point A on the bar and the position of W is adjusted until the moment barremains horizontal. Then according to the principle of moments,
M ×GO = W ×OA
M = W × OA

Here M is the mass of the moment bar. The experiment is repeated by changing the value of W andthe average value of M is calculated.
To �nd the mass of the given body
The moment bar is suspended at the centre of gravity G and the given body is suspended from apoint B on one side of G as shown in Fig.2. A known weight W is suspended on the other side of Gand the position of W is adjusted until the moment bar remains horizontal. Then according to theprinciple of moments,
m×BG = W × AG

Convex Lens
Exp. No: 5Date:
Aim
(i) To determine the focal length of the given convex lens by distant object method
(ii) To determine the focal length of the given convex lens by u-v method
(iii) To determine the focal length of the given convex lens from (u, v) graph
Apparatus
Convex lens, stand for mounting the lens, illuminated wire gauze, white screen and meter scale
Principle
A convex lens is an optical device which converges a parallel beam of light to a point by means ofrefraction. The point at which the light beam is converged is called the focus of the convex lens.The distance between the focus and optic centre of the convex lens is called its focal length (f). Thedistance between the lens and the object is called object distance (u) and the distance between thelens and the image is called image distance (v). The focal length of the convex lens is related toobject distance and image distance by the equation,

f =uv
(u+ v)
Procedure
Distant object method
The approximate focal length of the given convex lens is determined �rst by distant object method.For this, the convex lens is mounted vertically on a stand and is placed in such a way as to face avery distant object. The screen is placed on the other side of the lens and its position is adjustedto get a well de�ned sharp image of the object. The distance between the lens and the screen ismeasured using a meter scale. This distance gives the approximate focal length of the lens since theimage of a distant object will formed close to the focus of the lens. The experiment is repeated 3times and the mean value of the focal length is calculated.
u-v method
The given convex lens mounted vertically on a stand is directed towards the illuminated wire gauzewhich acts as the object (Fig.1). The lens is initially placed at a distance slightly greater than theapproximate focal length obtained by distant object method. The position of the screen is adjustedto get a clear image on it. The distance between the lens and the image is measured using a meterscale. The focal length of the convex lens is calculated using the formula,

f =uv
(u+ v)
The experiment is repeated for both magni�ed and diminished images. The average value of thefocal length is then calculated.
(u, v) graph
A graph is plotted with u along X-axis and and v along Y-axis using the same scale factor for bothu and v. The bisector of the angle XOY is drawn to meet the (u, v) graph at a point C as shown inFig.2. From the point C on the graph, perpendiculars CA and CB are drawn to the axes. Then,
OA = OB = 2f
Hence, f =(OA+OB)
