Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experimental Physics This book is the result of an experience of nearly ten years in teaching Experimental Physics to classes consist ing of students who were preparing for college and of students who were not preparing for college. Most of the experiments are quantitative, some are qualitative. Qualitative experiments serve to stimulate the interest of the student, and to prepare his mind for a better understanding of quantitative experiments. A beginner in Physics should know something about that which he'is expected to measure before he attempts to measure it. This knowledge is readily acquired from qualitative experiments.
