Do not print this calendar or download
documents far in advance. I will make changes throughout the
term.
Reading should be done before lecture. Lab
instructions should be printed and brought to lab.
All homework must be submitted to the
MasteringPhysics web site by
11:55 p.m. on the date posted.
Textbook homework (listed by chapter.number) from the
exercises and problems section may have their numbers
randomized. You may appeal your grade on textbook homework
by submitting written solutions the next lecture. I will
post solutions to the textbook homework to the
eLearn web site after the due date. |
