Using a spectrometer with diffraction grating‚ a hydrogen lamp was observed and emission wavelengths compared with the known wavelength values. Flames from ignited sodium chloride were also observed and wavelengths calculated. To calculate the

single spectrum‚ whereas the diffraction grating divides the available light into several spectra. Because of this‚ slit images formed using a prism are generally brighter than those formed using a grating. Spectral lines that are too dim to be seen with a grating can often be seen using a prism. Unfortunately‚ the increased brightness of the spectral lines is offset by a decreased resolution‚ since the prism doesn’t separate the different lines as effectively as the grating. However‚ the brighter lines

EXPERIMENT NO-1 AIM- To determine the frequency of A. C. mains by using an electric vibrator. APPARATUS- Electric vibrator‚ table lamp‚ pulley‚ weight box‚ fishing cord‚ a. c. source. THEORY- when a cord of mass per unit length m is connected to the vibrating rod of the vibrator and stretched with a tension T‚ the cord vibrators in segments. If the length of the cord is then adjusted until the nodes are clearly marked‚ the frequency of the stretched string is the same as of the vibrating rod which

Experiment 9: THE TANGENT GALVANOMETER; PURPOSE: In this experiment we will measure the magnitude of the horizontal component of the Earth’s Magnetic field by the use of an instrument called a tangent galvanometer. INTRODUCTION: A tangent galvanometer consists of a number of turns of copper wire wound on a hoop. At the center of the hoop a compass is mounted. When a direct current flows through the wires‚ a magnetic field is induced in the space surrounding the loops of

The diffraction grating and the slit You are probably familiar with the way that a prism splits light into its component colours. A diffraction grating does the same job‚ but more efficiently. The blue arrows show the way the various wavelengths of the light are sent

 Introduction The purpose of the flame lab was to identify a set of flame-test color standards for selected metal ions‚ relate the colors of a flame test to the behavior of excited electrons in a metal ion‚ observe spectral lines using diffraction grating‚ and to identify an unknown metal ion by using a flame test. My hypothesis for the lab was that most of the flames when sprayed with a solution will be a orange-red color. The unknown element color will be a orange-red color. “Every element

Photoelectric Effect: Determining Planck’s Constant Friday‚ Section 006 TA: Yilikal Ayino John Greavu with Daniel Erickson & Kevin Haar January 31‚ 2014 PreLab Up until the eighteenth century‚ particle theories of light dominated physics‚ primarily due to the work of Isaac Newton. Thomas Young’s 1805 famous double-slit experiment‚ which showed that light mimics a wave‚ extinguished some of these early views.
