University Bookstore. Only this printing is suitable; if you received an
earlier printing from the bookstore this semester, please return it to the
bookstore in exchange for the correct printing.

$14.25. You will be billed for this
later in the semester.
Laboratory
Room: Physics Room 64 (unless otherwise noted).
Policy
on Absences from Lab and Lab Waivers: See the reverse side of this schedule.
What
is expected of me in this lab? Read pages 1 to 9 of the Introduction and
Guidelines in the lab manual.

Note I: For this experiment there is no pre-lab for this experiment; do
instead pre-lab #0 in your manual.
Note II: Note that next week’s lab is not the next one in
the manual! Be sure you prepare for the correct lab each week!
Note III: Note that this lab is not the next one
in the manual!! Experiments are not always done in the order which they have in
the manual!!
Note IV: For several non-trivial reasons, this
experiment had to be scheduled later than we would like. It produces very
pretty data and involves great physics. You likely will learn quite a bit from
doing it. Consider it an important review for the final exam!
