The laboratory gives the student the opportunity to test theories learned in lecture and see the concepts applied to actual situations. Students will conduct experiments, write up results and draw conclusions. Each student will work with their group partners to set-up equipment, take data, analyze the data and apply what was learned in the experiment.

Learning Objectives: By the end of the course students will be able to:

1) Describe and conduct experiments to detect the presence of electrical charge. 2) Describe and conduct experiments to determine how charged objects behave and if objects have the same

or opposite charges. 3) Describe and conduct experiments demonstrating Gauss’ Law. 4) Describe and conduct experiments on the behavior of electric fields and voltages in and around conductors. 5) Describe and conduct measurements on resistor circuits. 6) Describe Kirchoff’s Laws and confirm the predictions made by experiment. 7) Describe and conduct experiments demonstrating the interaction between magnetic fields and current

carrying wires. 8) Describe and conduct experiments to measure the charge to mass ratio of the electron. 9) Describe and conduct experiments on electromagnetic induction. 10) Describe and conduct measurements on AC Circuits.

Academic Integrity:

University academic integrity policies will be vigorously enforced. The policies may be found at https://provost.asu.edu/node/20. A link to this policy may be found on the course Blackboard Page.

 In addition, the College has the following position on Academic Dishonesty:

“All students assume as part of their obligation to the College the responsibility to exhibit in their academic performance the qualities of honesty and integrity. All forms of student dishonesty are subject to disciplinary action. They may include but not be limited to: cheating, fabrication, facilitating academic dishonesty, and plagiarism.”

● The following are EXAMPLES of Academic Integrity violations. This list DOES NOT include all

possible violations of academic integrity. The instructor has the discretion to determine that other actions are violations of academic integrity in accordance with university policy.

○ “Adjusting” data to get the “right” result. (This is falsification of data.) ○ For labs that require running an experiment more than once, completing one run and inventing

data for the others based on the first. (This is fabrication of data.) ○ Partially completing an experiment but extrapolating some results. (This is fabrication of data.) ○ Non-participation in collecting experimental data and submitting the data from the other team

members as your own. (This is inappropriate collaboration.) ○ Copying and pasting sections of text, such as a description of an experimental method, into your

lab script from material assigned for the course or any other source. (This is plagiarism.) ○ Obtaining data from a friend or another group and submitting it as your own. ○ Moving about the room in an attempt to obtain data from other groups. Comparing data with

another group is permitted as long as the data submitted on the lab script is the data taken by the student’s group.

○ Providing data to a student who was absent from the lab session. ○ Turning in a lab script that includes data from a lab which the student did not attend. ○ Providing data to a student in another lab section. ○ Obtaining data from a student in another lab section. ○ Copying from or speaking with another student during quizzes. ○ Taking pictures or otherwise recording electronically data taken by another group.

Safety:

● Safety rules are found in this syllabus. General rules are: ○ Students are not allowed to be in the lab without the instructor present even if the door is open. ○ Students are not allowed to be in the lab after the scheduled end of the lab period. ○ Persons exhibiting unsafe behavior may be required to leave the class and receive a zero for the

assignment and/or quiz for that day. ○ Persons not wearing closed toed shoes will be required to leave and receive zeroes for both the

assignment and quiz for that day. Examples of allowed and disallowed shoes are found in the document Guide to Acceptable Shoes for Physics Lab.pdf which is found on the course Blackboard page under Content.

Attendance:

● You are expected to attend all scheduled meetings of your lab section and arrive on time and remain in class until all experimental data is gathered by your group. Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each lab. Note the following:

o If you arrive after the clicker quiz has started, you will not be able to take this quiz. o If you arrive after the experiment has started, you may be required to leave and receive a

zero for the script. o After the class has started, you are not allowed to leave the room unless the assigned

work is completed or you are excused to leave by the instructor. o If you know in advance that you are not going to be in class or are running late, please try

to contact me in advance. ● There will be no makeup labs, quizzes or tests. You are expected to complete labs, quizzes and tests with

your assigned instructor. While some labs may be short, plan to attend the full class time. ● Do not schedule any other classes or activities during this time. ● Do not schedule any activities, such as classes at another campus, which will make

you often late. For example, a class at the Tempe campus should end at least one hour before the start of the lab.

● Excused Absences: ○ A missed class may be excused and/or substitute work given for:

■ Religious Observances: Students should inform the instructor at the start of the semester of any classes that will be missed due to religious observances.

■ Participation in University Sanctioned Activities: students who participate in university- sanctioned activities that require classes to be missed, will be given opportunities to make up examinations and other graded in-class work. However, absence from class or examinations due to university-sanctioned activities does not relieve students from responsibility for any part of the course work required during the period of the absence. Students should inform the instructor at the start of the semester of any classes that will be missed.

■ Extreme Hardship: Students should provide documentation of the hardship such as doctor’s notes in the case of illness obituaries in the case of a death etc.

■ Internships: Missed classes due to conflicts with working hours for interns are not excusable and no make-up work will be given. If an internship MUST start before the end of the semester and the times conflict with class time, documentation explaining why the internship must be started before the end of the semester must be provided from both the employer and the ASU official responsible for the internship.

■ Military Activation of Students: Students who will be required to miss class due to military

activation should contact the instructor as soon as possible and provide a copy of the orders. Depending on the number of classes to be missed, the instructor may excuse the absences or the student may need to follow the policies in SSM 201-18: Military Activation of Students.

■ Other reasons at the discretion of the instructor.

● Drop/Withdraw from Class:

■ Make sure you are aware of the deadlines for dropping and withdrawing from the class. These deadlines can be found in the Academic Calendar: https://students.asu.edu/academic-calendar

■ Before you drop or withdraw, please contact me to see if there is any actions we can take together so that you can finish the class.

■ If you do decide to drop or withdraw, please contact me after you have done so. I will check the roster to make sure it shows that you have dropped or withdrawn. There have been cases where students have thought they have dropped or withdrawn but the transaction has not processed. If you check with me, we can confirm that the transaction was processed and you can contact your advisor.

Participation:

● Each experiment will be done as part of a group. It is required that every student participates in lab activities: equipment set-up and operation, data collection and data analysis. Participation points will be deducted if this requirement is not met.

● Lab groups may be re-arranged periodically by the instructor to facilitate this. ● Students found working on assignments etc. from other classes, including the lecture associated with this

lab will receive a warning on the first occurrence and a 0 for the lab script on each additional occurrence.

Lab Scripts and Reports:

● It is required that students print the lab Scripts from Blackboard BEFORE class. The printers in the lab rooms may NOT be used to print scripts.

○ At the discretion of the instructor, students without a printed lab script may receive a 0 for the script.

○ I may bring some extra copies of lab scripts to the class. Do not rely on me to have extra copies. ○ Students found printing scripts from the lab printers will receive a 0 for the lab script.

● The lab scripts will serve as the lab report. The script is worth 100 points. This includes the pre-lab. ● The prelab questions will be done as a group at the beginning of the lab. ● The completed lab scripts will be due according to the schedule in this syllabus.

○ Lab scripts, including the prelab, are to be submitted to Blackboard as a single document,

Microsoft Word and PDF files are preferred, however, pictures of the lab script may be submitted as long as:

1) The pictures are readable 2) The pictures are combined into a single file.

○ Include all plots and graphs to support your calculations unless told otherwise. ○ All graphs will be computer generated unless otherwise instructed.

■ The graphs will be printed in class and included in the same file as the completed lab script. Graphs will have a title and labeled axes and a font large enough to read (12 point or larger).

■ I reserve the right to deduct points when graphs do not meet the requirements. ● Late scripts may be accepted at the discretion of the instructor.

Quizzes:

● Quizzes will be given at the end of the week over the labs done during that week. It may or may not use clickers.

● At the beginning of each class, a quiz either on paper or using clickers will be given over the theory section of the lab script.

Grading:

● Assignment Weighting: ○ Lab scripts: 85% ○ Weekly Quizzes: 10% ○ Clicker Quizzes: 5%

● Grading Scale: The final grades will be determined as follows: ○ 97 – 100 A+ ○ 94 – less than 97 A ○ 90 – less than 94 A- ○ 87 – less than 90 B+ ○ 84 – less than 87 B ○ 80 – less than 84 B- ○ 76 – less than 80 C+ ○ 70 – less than 76 C ○ 60 – less than 70 D ○ < 60
