OBJECTIVES • Learn the physics behind how an optical trap works • Apply different techniques to determine the stiffness of an optical trap • Learn about how thermal fluctuations impact a bead's motion, and how an optical trap attenuates the bead's motion at certain frequencies • Determine how experimental variables can be used to change the stiffness of an optical trap • Learn how power spectral analysis can be used to determine the rotation frequency of E. coli
