Physics Practicals: Experiment List 22-23

The document lists physics experiments and activities for sections A and B, as well as suggested investigatory projects. Section A includes experiments on determining resistivity and resistance, as well as activities on assembling circuits and studying potential drop. Section B covers experiments on lenses, mirrors, and prisms, as well as activities on refraction and polarization. The suggested investigatory projects provide options for studying factors that affect cell properties, the relationship between light and resistors, measuring refractive indices, angular deviation through prisms, and more. Guidelines are given for how to construct a physics investigatory project.
