Physics Lab

In this laboratory, experiments are carried out in a variety of different areas of physics.
Measuring methods are used to determine characteristic properties of substances and materials and their changes of state.

Thermodynamics

• Determining the specific heat of condensation of water vapour
• Determining the specific heat capacity of solid substances
• Determining the linear coefficient of expansion for different metals

Optics

• Diffraction experiments

Mechanics

• Determining the density of solids and liquids
• Measuring dynamic toughness (viscosity) of liquids as a function of temperature with a viscometer according to HÖPPLER
• Measuring with a torsion pendulum
• Measuring with a spring -mass linear harmonic oscillator
• Determining the equivalent continuous sound level
