PHY252 Summer II  2008

Undergraduate Physics Laboratory II

Lab Resources

The lab write ups for the course are in pdf format. You should print out and review the write up(s) required for each experiment prior to class. A brief quiz will be given at the start of every class covering the material from the week's lab write up(s). Coming to class without studying the write-ups will likely result in a low grade on the quiz and a difficult time finishing the experiment.
