Physics 1210/1310, Spring 2015, Brotherton Instructor
Physics I: Mechanics and Mechanical Waves
This is a calculus-based, introductory physics class designed for science and engineering majors.
From Andria:
The review session will be Monday 1-3pm in Classroom 215. As stated in the syllabus, the exam will be cumulative, with approximately 3-4 questions on material from Exams 1 and 2, and 3-4 questions from the more recent chapters. I plan the review to start with around a half hour of summarizing the key ideas and approaches to problems from the semester, and for the remaining time will be an open Q&A session. Bring ideas that you're struggling with (e.g., "I don't get when to use which version of potential energy due to gravity, could you explain that?") or specific problems that you want to see solved (e.g., "I tried Problem 5.39 and I'm not sure where to start it").
Practice final exam 3. Solutions. Note that the final answer of 42,700 km for the JLA satellite is correct, but the previous answer in meters should be x10^7, not x10^6.
Assignments:
Homework will all be done using the Mastering Physics system.
The normal deadline will be Wednesday evenings at 11:59pm.
