SECTION–B
Experiments
1. To find the value of v for different values of u in case of a concave mirror and to find the
focal length.
2. To find the focal length of a convex lens by plotting graphs between u and v or between 1/u
and 1/v.
3. To determine angle of minimum deviation for a given prism by plotting a graph between
angle of incidence and angle of deviation.
4. To draw the I-V characteristic curve for a p-n junction diode in forward and reverse bias.
Activities
1. To identify a diode, an LED, a resistor and a capacitor from a mixed collection of such items.
2. Use of multimeter to see the unidirectional flow of current in case of a diode and an LED and
check whether a given electronic component (e.g., diode) is in working order.
3. To observe refraction and lateral deviation of a beam of light incident obliquely on a glass
slab.
