Experiment No. 1 Lever Determine the mass of a metre rule using a spring balance or by balancing it on a knife edge at some point away from the middle and a 50g weight on the other side. Next pivot (F) the metre rule at the 40 cm, 50 cm and 60 cm mark, each time suspending a load L on the left end and effort E near the right end. Adjust E and/or its position so that the rule is balanced. Tabulate the position of L, F and E and the magnitudes of L and E and the distances of load arm and effort arm. Calculate MA = L/E and VR = effort arm/load arm. It will be found that MA < VR in one case, MA = VR in another and MA > VR in the third case. Try to explain why this is so. Also try to calculate the real load and real effort in these case. 2 Inclined plane - Use a roller (to minimise friction) as the load. Determine the effort required to roll it up an inclined plane with uniform speed. Apply effort at the end of a string tied to the roller passing over a pulley and a scale pan attached. Calculate the MA = L / E and VR = 1 / sin = l / h obtained from the measurements of the inclined plane. Repeat for two other angles of inclination. Why is MA < VR ? 3 Determine the V.R. and M.A. of a given pulley system. 4 Trace the course of different rays of light refracting through a rectangular glass block at different angles of incidence, measure the angles of incidence, refraction and emergence.
