PHYS 205 Lab Manual

Experiment 6  Lab Project


Analysis

After collecting the required experimental data, you are expected to do proper analysis. Depending on the question you are trying to answer, you may need to generate tables and graphs and perform appropriate fits to your data. Then, compare your processed data with theoretical predictions and provide a detailed discussion (300 to 600 words) in this regard. In the discussion, be sure to indicate the limitations of your experiment and the possible sources of error.

Some projects lend themselves well to video presentations, as in the previous experiment. In this case, you may produce a short video in which you demonstrate the purpose, procedure, and outcome of your project. Refer the guidelines under Video Presentation in the introduction of this lab manual. Also, ensure proper citation and full referencing of all your sources.
