The practical physics specimen 3 is a bit strange! Can anybody help? I've not done any experiment on potentiometer with torch light or small bulb. U can share ur idea on it please.

CRITICALANALYST:
The practical physics specimen 3 is a bit strange! Can anybody help? I've not done any experiment on potentiometer with torch light or small bulb. U can share ur idea on it please.

What about specimen 2?

ComradeTY:

What about specimen 2?

I believe 2 is about heat energy, determination of specific heat capacities and the likes

likely questions are physics practicals 2009 number 1 and 2, 2011 number 3

Number one is more like Simple Harmonic Motion while number two is the effect of impurity on boiling point of water.

ok
