There will be two lecture and two recitation classes each
week. Usually the lectures will be on Tuesday and Thursday 9:30-10:50am in Phys.
Bldg. Room B129E. The recitation class meetings will usually be in Phys. Bldg.
Room B126 on Tuesday 2pm or 4pm (attend one) and Thursday 1pm or Friday 8:25am
(attend one). Attendance at the lecture and recitation sessions is required. Some lectures will take place at the recitation class time
slots, in which case the recitation meeting will take place at the lecture time
slot. These cases are indicated in the calendar below with the background color
of the table cell (lecture is light-green
background, the
recitation is light-blue background)
Schedule for the future lecture
topics and problem solving recitation sessions
is tentative and may change during the semester!
Please read assigned sections of your textbook
(Serway & Jewett, Cengage Learning, 9th
Edition, Volume 2) before you come to the lecture. They are shown below the
lecture topics.
Quizzes are on material covered since
the last test. Midterm exam are on material covered since the previous exam (beginning
of the class for the first exam). The final exam is comprehensive and covers
entire semester.
