Physics Lab Reports Guidelines:

1) Objective
Write a statement about the Physical Quantity, Relation or Principle that you are observing during the experiment.

2) Apparatus
List all the tools and equipment that you are going to use, for example: meter stick, stop watch, etc.

3) Procedure:
Using bulleted list, describe briefly the steps that you need to carry out in order to perform the experiment.

4) Data Tables:
Fill in all the necessary experimental data you gained from the experiment.

5) Calculations:
Clearly show all of the required calculations to find the parameters and the relations between different quantities in the experiment.

6) Graphs:
Plot the set of graphs that explains the performed calculations and find the necessary measures, such as: Slope, average, etc.

7) Analysis:
Discuss the relevant between the theoretical predictions and the experimental results.

8) Errors and Accuracy:

Count for the different types of errors that may occurred during the experiment, such as: Personal errors, procedural errors, instrumental errors and random errors.

9) Conclusion:
Write a brief statement whether the results agreed with the predictions.
