    Lab 5 The Diffraction Grating Chinua McDonald Objective: To measure the wavelength of light with a diffraction grating. Theory: The two types of diffraction gratings are the transmission and reflection gratings. They are made by ruling on a piece of glass or metal a number of evenly spaced lines with a fine diamond point. Diffraction phenomena can be analyzed in terms of Huygens’ principle‚ according to which every point on the wave front of a wave should be considered as a source

    Introduction: The purpose of this lab will be to investigate the concepts of accuracy and precision for quantitative measurements using density as an example. The density of a sample will be found experimentally and compared to a known value. The relationship of averages and different analysis techniques to percent error will also be explored. Density is a characteristic of a substance which can qualitatively be described as the amount of matter (mass) squeezed into a given space (volume). The

    Figures Lab Question 1: Which measurement gives the BEST value for the mass of a single paper clip? (BEST value includes both accuracy and precision) Claim: The measurement accepted as having the best value for the mass of a single paper clip was .411493 grams (Where best accounts for both accuracy and precision). This value was achieved by taking the average weight of a total of 30 paper clips‚ all of presumably varying weights. Evidence/Reasoning: The “best” value that maintains precision and accuracy
