Corequisite Courses: MTH 121
Class schedule:
Lecture: M W F 1:00-1:50 am Laboratory, Exams: Th 1:30am-4:15 pm
Course objective: To introduce the student to basic concepts in motion, equilibrium, work and energy, rotation, fluids and pressure, and thermodynamics. Principles and problem solving techniques will be emphasized, and verified in the laboratory session.
Homework: Homework will be due each Wednesday, and will be graded on neatness, organization, and whether it follows rationally. Figures, clear explanation of technique, and step-by-step written analysis are all graded upon. Groups will be assigned to work in class occasionally, evaluated as homework assignments. In addition, some assignments will be assigned through Web-accessed programs, such as TYCHO and e-mail. Monitor the webpage!
Quizzes: Quizzes can cover all material up to the point the quiz is given. Each succeeding chapter builds on previous material, so you must keep up! Other in-class activities may contribute a point or two to the next quiz score.
Makeup Policy: Makeup exams for excused absences may be given at the my discretion, before the examination has been returned to the students. Exam may be given in another form (i.e., oral exams), as instructor wishes. All classes and laboratories are expected to be attended, and I must be notified prior to absence with legitimate, verified excuses.
Point breakdown:
3 exams 100 pts. each
Quizzes 10 pts. each
Homework sets 10 pts. each
Final exam 150 pts.
Laboratories 10 pts. each
Assignment of Grades:
A 100% - 80 + 5% C 70 + 5% - 60 + 5%
B 80 + 5% - 70 + 5% D 60 + 5% - 50 +5%
The exact letter grade will be determined so that small differences in points will not change letter grades
