The advanced physics classes will begin with ch. 2. It is assumed that incoming students will be familiar with the metric system.

On the first day of class bring your physics book. An inexpensive hand calculator and a graphic calculator are recommended. The graphic calculator, or any other calculator with a programmable memory, will not be allowed on quizzes or tests.

During the first week speed, velocity, distance, displacement, and acceleration will be discussed. There will be two quizzes. One laboratory exercise will be held in RM 2102. Most of the problems at the end of ch 2 will be assigned.

The first test will be on Thursday, August 19th.
