All grades should be on blackboard

All grades should now be on blackboard, the final exam included. Your final course average is listed as FinalAvg. This is your grade for the course, with +/- boundaries at 7.5/2.5%. I will still need to double & triple check all my calculations before posting actual grades on myBama, which should be tonight.

Please look to make sure everything looks in order. The grade listed as "Q9exlab" was the last lab that you could do as a bonus - it ended up counting as an extra quiz to help boost the average there. (The quiz average ended at 80% overall.)

Again: if you're wondering if you made a + or - grade, it goes like this:

• A+: grade >= 97.5
• A: 92.5<= grade < 97.5
• A- 90 <= grade < 92.5

Repeat as necessary.

Final exam time is 2:00 NOT 12:00

I wrote down the wrong time when I looked up the final exam time. It is actually

Wed, June 24, from 2-4:30.

It is not at 12:00. Sorry for the confusion. Spread the word.

Final exam coverage

The final exam will not be totally comprehensive. It will have two sections, each of which will work like the previous exams.

Section 1: recent things, solve 3 of 5

• 14.3-10 
• 16.2-12
• 18.7-11

Section 2: review problems, solve 3 of 5

• all other material covered except
• Ch. 13, 17

You will be given a comprehensive formula sheet, and you can bring in a sheet of paper like before. The final exam is Wed, June 24, from 2-4:30. The final exam is in the lecture room, not the lab room.

UPDATE: I had listed the exam time incorrectly before, it is correct now.

Lab for Mon 22 June 2015

Tomorrow, you'll do a lab on calorimetry, it is pretty straightforward stuff. There will be a short quiz on temperature and heat.

Homework 3 solutions

Here you go. They are (partially) relevant to tomorrow's exam.

Exam 3 coverage

Exam 3 will work just like the last two. I've altered the coverage slightly, since I don't think we covered enough on waves yet to put that on the exam. So, the following sections will be covered on the exam:

Rotation/rolling/angular momentum/torque: 10.6, 10.8-10, 11.2-4, 11.6-8, 11.10-11

Gravitation: 13.2-8

Oscillations: 15.2-7

Problems for 17, 18 June

A couple of problems for tomorrow and Thursday. We'll go over most of them in class.
