20410014 - ESPERIMENTAZIONI DI FISICA II

The student acquires skills in the use of instruments for measuring electrical quantities and in the practical implementation of simple electrical circuits in direct and alternating current conditions; acquires awareness of the consistency of experimental data with the theoretically expected results, achieving mastery in applying the theory of errors to data analysis and in the graphical representation on a linear and logarithmic scale of the experimental results. Do observe and interpret optical effects related to refraction, diffraction and interference of light.

Modalità Erogazione

Lectures devoted to explain basic electronics, to evaluate uncertainties and to analyse experimental data. After this first part, the students are arranged in small groups to face lab practices, evaluated for the final rank

Modalità Frequenza

Attendance is optional for lectures in the classroom; it is mandatory for practical experiments in the laboratory

Modalità Valutazione

The final examination is based on a lab practice done singly and based on arguments close to the ones face out by the students during the lab practices and an oral examination on the topics covered during the lectures.
