A discovery not the others
Answer: find the answer in the explanation.
Explanation:
From the experiment set up in the diagram, the pointer is resting on the drinking straw while the rod is resting on the drinking straw.
When the rod is being heated through the bursen burner, there will be linear expansion in the rod. As the rod increases its length, this causes the drinking straw to roll and thereby causing the pointer to rotate.
The pointer therefore rotates because of the thermer expansion that happen in the rod due to the heat from the bursen burner.
Answer:
I would strongly recommend Exploring Quantum Physics through Hands-on Projects for physics practicals.
Explanation:
- Though it is not about books, but it is solely on you how you want to get knowledge. If you are truly passionate about learning physics in a practical way "Exploring Quantum Physics through Hands-on Projects" will be the best one out there.
- Besides "Laboratory Projects in Physics, a Manual of Practical Experiments for Beginners" is also a promising one.
- There are detailed chapters on important topics like light as a wave and particles, atoms and radioactivity, Schrödinger, etc.
- If you wisely follow these books, you will surely get all your doubts cleared and learn new mechanisms easily.
