Atomic Spectra Experiment
OBJECTIVES
- To understand the concept of diffraction of light.
- To measure and analyze the emission spectral lines of different elements
PRINCIPLE
The source of electromagnetic radiation is atoms. When the atoms of an element are in an excited state, they return to a lower energy state by emitting electromagnetic (EM) radiation. The transition of the electrons in the atom from higher energy level to a lower unique energy levels for the occupation of electrons, due to this the EM spectrum emitted is a unique signature of an element or a substance. The study of the characteristics of EM radiation emitted by atoms is called Atomic Emission Spectroscopy.

Brewster Angle Experiment
OBJECTIVES
Measurement of Brewster’s angle for a given dielectric dispersive medium.
PRINCIPLE
When un-polarized light is incident on the surface of a dielectric (such as a glass), at a certain angle of incidence the reflected light is completely plane-polarized. This phenomenon was discovered by Sir David Brewster and, thus, the specific angle is called Brewster’s angle or polarization angle. Also, from the experiment, it can be confirmed that the reflected ray and the refracted ray are 90° apart when the incident angle is set at Brewster’s angle. -

Biot-Savart’s Law Experiment
OBJECTIVES
- Measuring the magnetic field of a straight conductor and of circular conductor loops as a function of the current.
- Measuring the magnetic field of a straight conductor as a function of the distance from the axis of the conductor.
- Measuring the magnetic field of circular conductor loops as a function of the loop radius and the distance from the loop.
PRINCIPLE
Electric currents generate magnetic fields. Biot–Savart law is an equation describing the magnetic field generated by a constant electric current. It relates the magnetic field to the magnitude, direction, length and proximity of the electric current. In this experiment, we study the magnetic field characteristics in straight conductor and different types of circular coils. -

Faraday Effect Experiment
OBJECTIVES:
- Observe the effect of a magnetic field on plane of polarization of polarized light as it passes through a dispersive medium
- Measure the Verdet’s constant of a given dispersive material.
PRINCIPLE
When a linearly polarized light passes through an optical medium in a region of strong magnetic field, the plane of polarization of linearly polarized light rotates by an angle. The angle of rotation of plane polarized light is proportional to the length of optical medium and component of magnetic field in the direction of light. The factor of proportionality is a medium specific and is called Verdet’s constant. And this effect is known as the Faraday Rotation or Faraday Effect. Discovered by Michael Faraday in 1845, the Faraday effect was the first experimental evidence that light and electromagnetism are related. In the experimental setup the optical medium is SF6 glass cube. -
