PHYS 2A - Lab
This lab section is complementary to the lecture on classical mechanics and fluid dynamics. Fail to complete the lab section with a satisfactory grade will results an overall failing grade in the class. There will be an experiment every week. You will be expected to keep a laboratory notebook for each week’s experiment. You'll need to get my signature (together with your name and date) on your raw data page of your lab book before leaving the lab. Lab reports are due a week after the experiment.
