% A note a about scaling.
%
% the scale is necessary because
% Canvas (accessibility checker --Panorama) flags the PDF for having
% fonts smaller than 12pt because of how LaTeX calculates points versus
% how modern PDF viewers and accessibility tools interpret them.
% LaTeX Units vs. PDF Units: LaTeX uses the TeX point (1pt = 1/72.27 in)
% while PDFs and screen readers typically use PostScript points (1/72 in)
% This tiny difference means 12pt in LaTeX is actually around 11.955 bp,
% which is misinterpreted as smaller than 12pt.
% We only need a scale of 1.003, but to make it clear, I use 1.01.
% So a 12pt becomes 12.075 and it should be clear from misinterpretations.
% Note that using a larger scale results in significant alterations of the
% content distributions.

A series of laboratory experiments associated with the material presented in Calculus-based Physics I. Students will apply the principles and concepts highlighting the main objectives covered in coursework for Calculus-based Physics I.

The hands-on experiments in this lab offer the possibility to explore and gain a complementary perspective for the concepts introduced in the lecture. The lab introduces techniques for obtaining and analyzing experimental observations using diverse methods and equipment. 
Furthermore, the students have the opportunity to develop communication skills. 
In general, students are asked to report their activities and results clearly and concisely in formats ranging from "worksheets" to a formal Lab report write-up. The time spent outside Lab on preparation, data analysis, and presentation will vary somewhat, but an average of up to three hours of outside work per Lab is encouraged.}

\PARAGRAPH{}{
The required Lab Manual is provided to you; it has all the relevant information to perform each Lab. You are expected to read it before the Lab and bring it to the Lab. You are also expected to bring a laptop computer to perform some of the data analysis.
Be ready to work with all needed materials (pencils, notebooks, Laboratory Manual, personal computer, etc.). 

There will be four lab experiments for which you will be assigned a lab report; for the first two reports, you'll have the opportunity to submit a draft to receive feedback before you submit the final version. For the rest of the experiments, you will be assigned a worksheet. In contrast to the group effort during the experiments, all materials submitted for grading are individual efforts.


For safety, No food is allowed in the Lab; beverages should be carried in spill-proof containers. You are also expected to follow the instructions for each Lab carefully. Furthermore,  It is required that you comply with the COVID-19 procedures given below to reduce the risk of transmission in the Lab. 
Make sure you read and understand them.

Attendance is mandatory. Punctuality in attendance and completion of all assignments on time is required.
You are expected to submit your reports a week after the Lab is completed.

Rotation of individual roles in a team is required to ensure everyone's participation in the exercises.
Ensure your Instructor signs off your raw data before leaving the Lab.

Approach all issues with professional courtesy and respect the efforts, opinions, and property of others.
Disruptive behavior, including horseplay and reckless use of equipment, will NOT be tolerated.

To minimize disruptions in the Lab, you are required to abide by the following rules of etiquette.
Cell phones should be reserved for emergencies --no text. If you must accept a call, please take it outside the Lab.
If you are late to the Lab, please keep the disruption to a minimum while joining your team.
Abusers may be asked to leave the Lab. 
}   

\Subsection{Policies}
\PARAGRAPH{}{
\begin{itemize}
\item The lowest grade on a worksheet is not counted toward the final grade. In contrast, all grades from Lab reports are counted.
\item Lab reports are graded according to the rubric posted on CANVAS.
\item In general, there are no makeup labs, but the Instructor may grant a request under extenuating circumstances.
\item Under no circumstances are students allowed to take the Lab with a different TA --this is a FERPA violation. 
\item Excused absences. To be an excused absence, a legitimate note (e.g., a Medical note.) has to be submitted to the Instructor. At the Instructor's discretion, the student can prepare and submit the corresponding Report or Worksheet using only Instructor's provided data. No penalty is accessed in this case. 
\item Unexcused absences. Depending on the specific case, at the Instructor's discretion, the student may be allowed to submit the corresponding Report or Worksheet using only Instructor's provided data. In this case, however, a report can earn at most 80\% of the grade, while worksheets only 50\%.
\item Late work. Lab work submitted late for grading but not more than a week past due will be accepted but will earn at most 80\% of the grade.
      No lab work past due more than a week will be generally accepted, but at the Instructor's discretion, it may be accepted under extenuating circumstances.
\item The use of generative AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT, Dall-e) is only permitted in this course for checking grammar and style.
      All other uses (e.g. Producing drafts for writing assignment, writing entire paragraphs or papers to complete assignments) are not permitted and 
      violations to the academic honesty Policy.
\end{itemize}
}
%
 \Subsection{Academic Honesty in the Physics Labs}
 \PARAGRAPH{}{
You are responsible for knowing, understanding, and following NMT Academic Honesty --see paragraph below. Any suspicion of a violation of the letter or intent of the NMT policy will be reported to the Lab Director, who will determine the appropriate charges to bring to the Office of the Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs. In general, obtaining answers that, in any way, bypass the need to think about the assignment is a violation of the academic honesty policy and can have serious consequences. 

Although Laboratory exercises are a group effort, discussing the material with each other is encouraged, and Data obtained during the lab session is expected to be the same within each group (tables, graphs, etc.), your written assignments must be your own work; any help received must be acknowledged, and proper citations of the utilized sources must be included (even for your own work, not specifically created for the assignment). Failure to properly acknowledge sources constitutes plagiarism and is not tolerated. \emph{If in doubt, please ask your Instructor before submitting any work as your own.}

Only data you collect with your team can be used for work submitted for grading. Giving or receiving data for your analysis from any other source is not permissible unless your Instructor specifically directs sharing data, in which case the source must be acknowledged.

\begin{description}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Vector Addition of Forces}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this lab, we introduce vectors and demonstrate vector addition using a 
familiar vector quantity --force. We do this experimentally by using a 
force table, which allows three separate forces to be in 
{\em static equilibrium}. We also balance the forces graphically and mathematically.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Kinematics}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this lab, we study the description of a particle's motion. 
The objective is to recognize constant velocity and various
types of accelerated motion from looking at the track left by a moving particle.
}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Projectile Motion}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this lab, projectile motion is studied with emphasis on the vectorial aspect of the equations of motion, 
which are decomposed into Cartesian components for their analysis. The range of a projectile is measured for 
different launch configurations and then compared to the values predicted by theory.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Newton's Laws --Part I}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this Lab, we start the study of Newton's second and third laws of motion. 
The relevant variables, velocity, acceleration, and force, are measured using a computerized system for data acquisition.  
These measurements are performed on air track.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Newton's Laws --Part II}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this lab, we continue the study of Newton's second and third laws of motion. As in the previous lab, the relevant variables, velocity, acceleration, and force, are measured using a computerized system for data acquisition. In particular, we explore the Atwood's machine and static and dynamic friction coefficients.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Conservation of Energy}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this laboratory exercise, conservation of energy is used to analyze the motion of a wheeled car "sliding down" a fancy ramp.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Binary System}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this lab, we study the conservation of energy and momentum in a binary system that allows for orbital motion. The orbits of two spring-coupled masses are examined in the reference frame of their center of mass. Make sure that you bring your laptop for to this lab.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
%\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Collisions in 1-D and 2-D}{
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Collisions in 1 \& 2 D}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this lab, momentum and energy conservation are investigated. Specifically, we examine elastic collisions in one and two dimensions, 
as well as partially and totally inelastic collisions in one dimension.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Inelastic Collisions}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this lab, conservation of momentum is investigated in two kinds of
inelastic collisions: the ballistic pendulum and the angular collision.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
%\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Torque and Moment of Inertia}{
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Torque \& Moment of Inertia}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this lab, the relationship between torque and angular 
acceleration is used to determine the moment of inertia of 
a disklike object with respect to its center of mass.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Rolling Without Slipping}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this lab, the translational and rotational motion of an object rolling 
down a ramp are analyzed using the conservation of energy approach. 
The results are then compared to values obtained directly from the definition of the moment 
of inertia for each of the rolling objects.
}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Angular Momentum}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this exercise, the conservation of angular momentum is investigated during the following situations: 
orbital motion, internal changes in the moment of inertia, and changes in orientation of the axis of rotation.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Harmonic Oscillators}{
\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
In this lab, the behavior of harmonic oscillators is investigated.
The classic mass-spring system is studied under forced and unforced conditions.  Simple and conical pendulums are also studied in this lab.}
\end{LABABSTRACT}
%\begin{LABABSTRACT}{Appendix --SPARKvue Guide}{
%\LABEL{chap:\SUID}
%In this appendix, we present a short introduction to the SPARKvue software, which is used in the Labs about Newton's laws.}
%\end{LABABSTRACT}
