    This document is a lab report for an introductory physics experiment on operating a cathode ray oscilloscope (CRO). It contains questions about using the CRO to measure waveform properties like period, frequency, and amplitude for different signal generator settings. Students are asked to take measurements of sine and square waves on the CRO across a range of frequencies and power levels. They must record their observations and calculations in tables to analyze the CRO's accuracy in measuring frequency and the effects of varying the input signal.

    Group No.: Date:

    (A) (i) Calculate what is the sweep period now.

    (ii) Check your answer by timing the sweep roughly (an ordinary watch will do)

    (iii) Compare your measurement and your prediction. Are they the same/different?

    (B) According to the setting used now, what is the number of divisions shifted
    compared with the reading when no dry cell is connected to CRO?

    What is the shift if you change the setting to 1V/cm? And how about 0.2V/cm?

    (C) How many cycles can be observed on the following Time/Div settings?
    If you cannot count the number of cycles, give an estimated number.

    1 μs/cm

    10 μs/cm

    1 ms/cm

    10 ms/cm

    100 ms/cm

    (E) (i) What do you observe on the screen?

    (ii) On what Time/Div do you get one complete cycle?

    (iii) What is the setting now for 1 cycle?

    (G) What do you observe when the VARIABLE knob is turned?

    You may also try to adjust VARIABLE (and if necessary Time/Div) so as to


    keep just two complete cycles on the screen as you vary the frequency in small steps
    from 200Hz to 2000Hz ( anyway over a factor of about 10).
    Note that if VARIABLE is not fully clockwise the sweep rate is unknown, and
    the Time/Div value shown on the black switch no longer applies.
