8.02X :: Electricity & Magnetism

Experiments


Experiment Lab Hours:

The lab (Rm 4-355) is open M 3-5PM, T 7:30-9:30PM, W 7:30-9:30PM, R 3-5PM, F 12-3PM.

The take home experiments, built from the parts in the red boxes, are a crucial part of the 8.02x experience. Each partnership of two students will build and use 9 experiments. All experiments need to be demonstrated and checked off during lab hours. Experiment related questions will be included on the problem sets, as well as in each of the 4 quizzes. Early check-off of the experiments will be awarded bonus points. A book with experiment information and instructions is available at CopyTech.

For the lab write-ups (to be handed in by both partners, together with the problem sets), please follow the questions that are posted together with the problem sets and NOT the questions in the manual - those are similar, but often somewhat confusing.
