Department of Physics
Virtual Lab
The objective of the lab is to correlate the fundamental concept learnt from the theory classes with the experiments. The virtual lab is an attempt to support the students to learn the theoretical background and visualize different experiments in the online mode.
The course aims to cover the fundamental formalism and applications of Physics. It mainly includes basic Newtonian mechanics, heat & thermodynamics, electricity &magnetism.
