 Instructions regarding physics practical file, activity file and project (working
model)

1. Every student has to make a practical file, activity file and an investigatory project as
well as a working model.

2. There are two sections. Section ‘A’ and Section ‘B’. you have to write at least six
experiments from each section. No. of experiments as per C.B.S.E guidelines from both
sections are listed below.

SECTION – ‘A’

EXPERIMENTS:

1. Determine resistivity of 2 wires by plotting a graph between potential difference and


current.

2. To find resistance of a given wire using meter bridge.


3. To verify the laws of combination of resistance series (combination)

Or

To verify the laws of combination for parallel combination.

4. To determine resistance of galvanometer using half-deflection method. Also find its


figure of merit.

5. To find frequency of AC mains using Sonometer.

SECTION- ‘B’

6. To find focal length of convex mirror, using convex lens.

7. To determine angle of minimum deviation for a given prism by plotting a graph


between angle of incidence and angle of deviation.

8. To draw the 𝐼 − 𝑉 characteristic curve for a 𝑝 – 𝑛 junction in forward biasing and


reverse biasing.

9. To determine refractive index of a glass - slab using a travelling microscope.

10. To find focal length of concave lens using convex lens.

LIST OF ACTIVITIES (3 from each section)

(There should be separate file for activities)

SECTION- ‘A’

1. To measure resistance, voltage (AC/ DC), current (AC) and check continuity of a
given circuit using multimeter.

2. To assemble a household circuit comprising three bulbs, three (on/off) switches, a


fuse and a power source.

3. To assemble the components of a given electrical circuit.


SECTION- ‘B’

1. To observe refraction and lateral deviation of a beam of light incident obliquely on a


glass slab.

2. To observe diffraction of light due to a thin slit.
