Latest update: October 31, 2012.
The labs are soon around the corner. Hopefully you are not too exhausted from working on the oblig and thankfully we have tried to make the labs a lot more fun this year. We hope that you’ll enjoy learning about these concepts of electromagnetism.
Time and place
The deadline to register for the lab was last friday. If you have not registered, please contact us as soon as possible!
The labs are held from week 45 to week 47 (room FV225). Each week you will attend one lab which lasts four hours. The labs are held multiple times, each week and they are as follows:
- Mondays 08-12
- Tuesdays 13-17
- Wednesdays 08-12
- Thursdays 13-17
- Fridays 13-17
Again, we repeat that you are only attending one of these times each week. In other words, there are a total of 12 hours of lab during the whole semester.
Prelab and exercises
Each lab has a prelab and exercises. You have to do the prelab questions before showing up at the lab. These are multiple choice and should be fairly quickly done.
In the end of each lab there is a set of exercises that are supposed to be done at the lab. Some might however be done at home before the lab, which is perfectly fine if you feel like doing so to save time.
Topics
The topics of the labs are
- Lab 1 – Electromagnets and electromotors (Updated October 31, 2012)
- Lab 2 – Hall effect and superconductivity (Updated October 31, 2012)
- Lab 3 – Magnetism and induction
You may download the lab texts now and have a look through them. They are mostly complete, but some changes may occur – also to the questions. We will update this post whenever we change the labs, so make sure to check back here and see if there are any updates the day before you have your lab.
Good luck!
