Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Physical Laboratory Experiments in Heat, Vol. 3 The following notes cover the experiments in Heat which are required of students taking the General Laboratory Course in Physics. The laboratory work is performed subsequent to or in some cases concurrently with the lecture course on Heat. Little or no attention is, therefore, devoted in these notes to theory, deduction of formula etc., a knowledge of which is presupposed. On the other hand a detailed discussion is given of experimental methods, manipulation, sources of error and attainable precision, - these matters being regarded of paramount importance in all work performed in the physical laboratory at the Institute. The cuts have been made from drawings of the actual apparatus used in the laboratory, and the description of the apparatus and procedure is given in such detail that the student is expected by studying his notes carefully before the exercise to be able to begin work at once on entering the laboratory without further reference to them. As most of the experiments described require about two hours - the usual laboratory period - for their completion, preparation for the work prior to the exercise is essential. Many of the questions and problems at the end of each experiment require a knowledge of Precision of Measurements for their solution. These may be omitted by those students who have not had a course in that subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
