Supervisor:

Department of Physics

Synopsis:

Lecture is intended primarily for students who study branch Nuclear Chemistry engineering, or practically oriented bachelor's specializations of branch Nuclear engineering. But it can be also visited by students interested in the other specializations. During Experimental laboratory, students learn how to prepare for experiments (including work with the literature), the implementation of the measurement (acquire of different experimental procedures and routines), will teach writing the records of measurement, processing and evaluation of results. At the same time practically extend the knowledge gained in lectures on physics.

Requirements:

Knowledge of basic course of physics

Syllabus of lectures:

Syllabus of tutorials:

1.Gas thermometer, latent heat of water vaporization.

2.Volume measurements, determination of the Poisson constant.

3.Harmonic oscillation. RLC circuits.

4.Line spectra of Hg and Na spectral lamps using prism spectrometer.

5.Geometrical optics. Photometry.

6.Spectrum of gamma radiation.
