S-103 (Applied Science-I) (Physics) : Government Polytechnic, Ahmedabad General Department

This document outlines the topics and schedule for a physics course covering units and dimensions, surface tension, sound waves, optics, radioactivity, nuclear physics, and modern physics. The course is divided into 6 sections covering these topics over multiple class periods. Measurement instruments like vernier callipers, micrometer screw gauges, and physical balances will be demonstrated. Concepts like surface tension, wave properties, sound propagation, lenses, radioactivity, and nuclear reactions will be explained. Applications of ultrasound and optical instruments will also be discussed.
