...
ACTIVITY 1
Aim:- To assemble the household circuit comprising three on/off switches
,a fuse ,a power source ,three holders and three bulbs
...
Arrangement:-
Procedure:1
...
The other end of the holder is connected to
the black flexible wire
...
Three bulb – switch combination are connected in parallel, red wire
ends of one point and black wire ends of other point
...
Fuse F is connected at the end of the red wire
...
A 2 pin plug is connected at the ends of the two wires
...
The plug is inserted in the 2 pin socket provide at the main electric
board with a main switch
...
Observation:The bulb glows when the switch is made ON and it stops glowing when
the switch is put OFF
...
To make
the components are not connected in proper and correct the circuit
...
Ammeter should always be connected in series
...
Voltmeter should always be connected in parallel
...
Rheostat should always be connected in series
...
Key should always be connected in series
...
Precautions:1

ACTIVITY 3
Aim:- To assemble the components of a given circuit
...
Ohm’s law circuit:-
Procedure-:
1
...
The Voltmeter is connected parallel to the resistance

...
ACTIVITY 4
Aim:- Assemble and arrangement for observing deflection of magnetic
needle placed near a conductor carrying current
...
Theory:- When electric current passes through a conductor magnetic
field is produced around it
...
Procedure:1
...
The cell/ battery, Rheostat, Ammeter, and the key are
connected in series as shown in figure
...
2
...
The magnetic and direction of the
deflection of the needle are observed
...
Rheostat is adjusted for two more reading ‘k’ is closed, the current
flows through the circuit
...
4
...
Conclusion:A magnetic field is produced near a current carrying Conductor, the
direction and initiation of the field depend on the direction and
magnitude of current flowing through the conductor
...
Apparatus:- Carbon resistance ,a battery eliminator (2v,4v & 6v), a step
down transformer,a plug key & multimeter
...
The S
...
unit
of resistance is Ohm (Ω)
...
The power rating
may be as low as 0
...
Generally the
resistors are made from mixtures of carbon and graphite with a power
insulating material which acts as a binder
...
Resistors are colour coded
...
The digits are associated with the various colour as
follows
...
For the measurement of DC, Galvanometer is used
...
For the measurement of AC, the AC ammeter is used
...
e
...
Carrying wire is proportional to the square of
current
...
Procedure: - (For measurement of resistance)

Now, touch the
metallic ends of the probes to the two terminal of AC source

ACTIVITY 6
Aim:- To identify a Diode, a LED, a Transistor ,an IC, a Resistor and a
Capacitor from mix collection of such items
...
Theory:-Diode, LED, Resistor and a Capacitor have two legs each, the
Transistor has 3 legs and an IC has minimum 8 legs
...
For the
identification of Diode, LED, Resistor and Capacitor help of current can
be taken
...
When DC is supplied to the Capacitor, the Multimeter set at R, shows ‘0’
(Zero) deflection after the sudden full scale deflection
...
When a diode emits light then it is a LED
...
First we pick up the components with minimum number of legs
...
The components with 3 legs is a Transistor
...
The components with 8 or more legs is an IC
...
Take the Multimeter with selector switch turn the positive R for
checking the conductivity of current
...
Apparatus:- White paper, Glass slab, Drawing pins, Meter scale, Pencil
etc
...
It
emerges from the other parallel surface in the same direction
...
Here, < i = < e
Procedure:1
...
2
...
Now
remove the glass slab
...
Draw a line N1N2 on the point B perpendicular to side PS
...
Now draw a angle making an angle ‘i’ with the normal
...
Now fix points L and M at 5-10 cm distance from each other

ACTIVITY 8
Aim:- To study the nature of image by a spherical mirror
(Convex/Concave) or (Identification of Concave and Convex mirror)
Concave mirror:- In case of a Concave mirror reflecting surface is
towards the centre of the sphere of which the mirror is a part
...
Nature of image of a Concave mirror:1
...
The image is real & inverted
...
Virtual Image- When the object is hold in front of a concave mirror
between the pole (P) & principal focus (F), the image is virtual, erect &
magnified
...
ACTIVITY 9
Aim- To explain the formation of various images formed by a concave
mirror for various position of object
...
If the object is placed at infinity ,the image is form at focus F
...
2
...
The
image is real, inverted & diminished
...
If the object is placed at C, the image is form at C
...
4
...
The
image is real, inverted & highly magnified
...
If the object is placed at F, the image is form at infinity
...
6
...
The image is virtual, erect & magnified
...
1
...
The
image is real, inverted and point size
...
If the object is placed beyond center of curvature C1, the image is
formed between F2 and C2
...
3
...
The image is real, inverted and same size that of the object
...
If the object is placed between centre of curvature C1 and focus F1
image is formed beyond centre of curvature C2
