Using the part 1 data from your physics lab abovecalculate the following; calculated angle, observed angle andpercent difference (show all work outside the table)
For parts 1, 2, 3, and 4., use L and y to calculate theobserved angle. Excel works in radian mode. You can force it intodegree mode by using: sin(radians(B4)) or degrees(asin(C4/D4))where B4 is your angle in degrees and C4 and D4 would be distancemeasurements.
For parts 1, 2, and 3, use the wavelength, order number, etc.,to calculate the expected angle.
For parts 1, 2, and 3, calculate the percent difference betweenthe observed and expected angle.
