Course Description

The physics lab involves performing experiments related to the phenomena learned in the lecture portion of the class. In these experiments you will learn how to collect, analyze, and interpret data. We will use spreadsheets to perform calculations and R to perform statistical processes and make plots.

Student Outcomes

By the end of the laboratory course, students will be able to: 1. manipulate equipment to perform an experiment, 2. evaluate an experimental setup to address areas where uncertainty is introduced, 3. formulate plots and perform linear regressions in R, and 4. utilize the statistics behind data collection to draw informed conclusions.
