Quantitative investigation of magnetic braking
This project entailed an investigation of the magnetic damping of a metallic disk oscillating inside a nominally uniform magnetic field.
Measuring velocity by electromagnetic induction
This Studio project combined mechanics with electromagnetism. The e.m.f. induced in a set of vertically displaced coils as a magnet
How do objects heat up and cool?
Heating and cooling are common phenomena. The current project was aimed at verifying these processes quantitatively. For example, it was
Verifying Faraday’s law and electromagnetic damping
In this experiment, an oscillatory system was employed for the verification of Faraday’s law. Disk magnets were attached with D-shaped
Franck Hertz Experiment seen in a new light
The main f
ocus of this project was to come up with a new idea regarding the famous Frank-Hertz experiment.
A dipole oscillating in the earth’s magnetic field
The group determined the earth’s Magnetic field B using a pair of magnets that oscillate about a vertically suspended wire.
Conservation on Linear Momentum on a Carrom Board
To verify the conservation of linear momentum, these students analyzed colliding pucks on a carom board through videography. They used
Thermal and Electric Properties of a Light Bulb
The aim of the investigation was to probe the electrical and thermal properties of a commercial incandescent light bulb and
