Laboratory Materials

You will need to bring the following materials, beginning with the second lab meeting.

1. Hard Bound Square-ruled Lab Notebook, for recording lab work.

National #43-591 and #53-108 or Roaring Spring #77475 are good.

2. Physics 232 Lab Manual - Rev. C. Sold at the first lab meeting by the Physics and Astronomy Club.
Older editions will not be adequate.

3. Calculator with statistical functions.

4. Ruler. A clear one works best.

5. Adhesive. Tape or a glue stick.
