3)
What you should know?: It
highlights the concepts and background
knowledge
related to the experiment, which you must understand in order
to
do the experiment in a meaningful way.
4)
Material required: It
gives an exhaustive list of apparatus and other material
required
to perform the experiment.
5)

manner for setting up the apparatus and performing the,
experiment.
The precautions, wherever necessary, are incorporated while
describing
various steps.
6)

proper format of recording the observations, is
suggested
in each experiment.
7)
Analysis of data: How to
analyze your data, is suggested in each experiment;
Quite
frequently, it is combined with the previous heading, at serial number 6.
8)
Result: It is the
outcome of the observations and supports the aim set in the
beginning.
9)
Sources of error: Since
all the experiments in physics involve measurements,
your
attention; is drawn in each experiment to major pitfalls specific to that
experiment,
if any, which may cause error in your measurements.
10)
Check your understanding: At
the end of each experiment, a few questions
