EXPERIMENT NO 10

OBJECT:
Follow the step to find the value of frequency of AC supply by Melde’s apparatus (Vibrograph).

APPARATUS:
Vibrograph thread of uniform thickness, a pan, pulley, weight box, optical pins with stand &
meter rod

WORKING FORMULA:
The frequency of AC supply can be found by vibrograph with the help of following formula

1 𝑀𝑔
𝑣= √
2𝑙 𝜇

where
𝑣 = frequency of AC supply (Hz)
𝑙 = length of one loop (cm)
M = mass of suspended, it is sum of mass of pan and mass in pan (g)
𝜇 = linear density of thread (g/cm)
𝑔 = acceleration due to gravity (980 cm /sec2)

OBSERVATIONS:
Mass of pan = m1 = g
linear density of thread = 𝜇 = g/cm
