PH 201 Materials for Laboratory Work

http://physics.nmu.edu/~ddonovan/red_grey.gif

 

Lab handouts below are provided for students who wish to see ahead what a lab is about.  Students are not required to print these out.  The Lab handouts will be provided on paper in the lab when the lab will be performed.

 

Pre-Lab and Post-Lab handouts must be downloaded and filled out by the students prior to attending the lab.  For most weeks, a student at the start of lab will be turning in the lab handout from the previous week, the post-lab related to the previous week, and the pre-lab for the current week’s lab.  For example if it were week 5, then the lab from week 4, the post-lab from week 4 and the pre-lab for week 5 would be due at the start of lab.

 

Students will most likely not be able to get help with lab materials in the hour or two leading up to the start of their lab.  Students are encouraged to seek help prior to that.

 

Solutions to appropriate Pre-Lab and Post-Lab exercises will be posted usually by 5 PM on Fridays.  The next week’s Lab handout, Pre-lab and Post-lab exercises will also be posted usually by 5 PM on Fridays.  They may be available earlier, but this is not guaranteed.
