Compute wavelength from grating diffraction patterns.
Steps
1. Preparation & Safety
  • Read the procedure: Diffraction Using Grating.
  • Review safety precautions: PPE, lab rules, and hazard notes.
  • Collect and check required apparatus and reagents.
  • Calibrate instruments (balances, meters, lenses, etc.) if applicable.
  • Record initial observations and environmental conditions.
2. Perform Experiment
  • Follow the step-by-step method for Diffraction Using Grating.
  • Capture readings in a data table; repeat trials as required.
  • Control variables and note any deviations/anomalies.
  • Compute intermediate results (averages, slopes, constants).
  • Keep the workspace tidy; handle spills and waste as per protocol.
3. Upload & Cleanup Optional
  • Analyze results (graphs/calculations); state inferences and errors.
  • Attach photos of setup/readings or a PDF of your report (if required).
  • Return apparatus; clean bench and dispose waste safely.
  • Get staff verification if the lab requires sign-off.
  • Submit your work in the portal and mark the step complete.
