physics labs
Experiment-filled science rooms
Physics labs are educational facilities where students conduct experiments to observe physical principles firsthand.
The term also refers to the classes held in such spaces: I have physics lab on Tuesday afternoons.
Lab work typically involves measuring, recording data, and writing formal reports.
In research contexts, a physics lab is where scientists investigate phenomena from quantum mechanics to astrophysics.
