    Application
In summary, the conversation discusses the challenge of including real-life applications in a formal laboratory report and the comparison to using a Wheatstone Bridge as an example. The report typically includes an introduction, theory, methodology, data and results, conclusion, and references, but the speaker is unsure how to begin. The other person suggests using a real-life application, such as the Wheatstone Bridge, to demonstrate the application of the theory in a practical way.

How can I put laboratory equipment as a real-life application?
Because I have this Formal Report that contains:
Introduction
Theory
Methodology
Data and Results
Conclusion
References

and I don't have any idea how to start. can someone help me?

How does writing a laboratory report concern real-life applications? That is an interesting question to ask but normally you won't bother with that when writing a laboratory report.

Do you mean something like a Wheatstone Bridge (as a real-life application of Kirchoff's Rules), where you give the theory of how it works and then show how, by testing with known values, it measures 'unknown' resistances?
