Midterm Overview

There will be 25 multiple-choice questions on the midterm. Details about the problem distribution are given in the following link:

Midterm Overview

Sample Midterm

Here are ten example problems in the format of the midterm:

Midterm Example

Simulations

Here are simulations that illustrate much of the mechanics we studied. In particular, I like “resultant of forces” so you can see how to add vectors graphically. Also valuable are “Newton’s Cradle” and “Carousel.”

Mechanics Simulations

When we study gravity, the following will be useful and interesting:

Astronomy Simulations

Solutions

Problems from the notes are solved in class and are available here (up to the midterm) from students who submitted them in digital form.

Solutions by Chapter: These are due to Berna Coduroglu. They are in WORD format and best viewed with zoom page width (View, Zoom, Page Width). Solutions Part 1 Solutions Part 2

Solutions by Lecture Date: These are due to Harrris Naveed. They are in pdf format and are listed in our section, “University Physics,” on St. John’s Central.

Equations:

Here are all the equations in the notes. This is the same sheet you will receive with the final exam.

Final Exam Overview:

There will be 33 multiple-choice questions on the final. Details about the problem distribution are given in the following link, but be aware that most topics are covered through connections with those indicated.

Final Fall 2006 Sample

Our final exam will be held on Thursday, December 13, in B70 SAH from 10:30 to 1:30.

Please note the unfamiliar place and time.

IMPORTANT: Please complete your teaching evaluations for physics now! I do not want you to experience any delays in reporting grades. I know it is bothersome, but it is important.
