Procedure 1. Set up apparatus as shown above. 2. Document current read by multimeter 3. Start collecting data on LoggerPro 4. Stop collecting data on LoggerPro 5. Document average magnetic field 6. Increase resistance to change current 7. Repeat previous steps until you have 10 data points Data Qualitative Observation Write a brief paragraph describing your observation in words. Model Diagram Insert your force, energy, or other diagram that supports your calculations here. List of Equations List all equations here that you will use to support your calculations.
Sample Calculation Provide a sample calculation here. Sample Graph(s) Include a graph that is representative of your data here. Be sure to include the equation describing the graph with units assigned to any numbers. Data Table Insert your data table here. Don't forget to include units. Smallest Objective Digit List the place value of the smallest objective digit for each measurement instrument used. For example: meter stick 0.001 m or 1 mm Discussion Was the goal achieved? Explain how you know by restating the goal. Always reference a percent error if calculated.
What is the accepted model? This is essentially a summary of the model as described in notes or the book. Main points to address are accepted visible or audible patterns, graph shape, equation, and accepted values. Justify the fit of the accepted model. Always refer to a correlation coefficient for any equation fit. Comment on how graph shapes match the accepted model in addition to any specific numbers or equations that are supposed to be achieved. Justify the fit of any other models if appropriate. Clearly state no models or describe other models in the same way as the accepted model. Explain how the smallest objective digit affected results. There is one simple way to estimate this effect. Copy your data table and add an additional digit to a few of the data values. Is your error significantly impacted? If so, this suggests that a smaller division measurement device may be needed to improve your results.
Describe error sources and show or estimate their effect. This means choosing different regions on a graph or changing numbers in a data table to show how error is affected. Explain how the lab may be improved or what additional research might provide clarification.
