Physics 202 - Winter 2009

Homework Assignments

We will be using a Web Based Homework system call WebAssign. You will submit most of your homework answers via computer. The problems are directly from the textbook. WebAssign will give quick feedback answers to homework questions. You will will be allowed a 6 attempts to submit a correct answer. (Homework can be saved. This would not count as a submission). THE DUE DATES ARE SET AND NO LATE HOMEWORK WILL BE GRADED. Due Dates may change if the lectures fall behind. Note: the values in the problems on the web question will be different for each student. If you figure out how to solve the problem as a group, you will still have to calculate your values for your own answer.

Most homework will be due on Mondays at 5:00 p.m. (Webassign will have the due date and time posted.) There are a few exceptions. Problems to be hand graded will be handed into your Tutorial T.A.s box.

Campus Computing Lab Locations and Hours/Info is here.

The homework will help you keep pace with the course and the feedback will let you know how well you are doing.

WebAssign will default to 3 Sig Figs unless it gives a statement that it wants something other than 3 sig figs. It doesn't directly follow the sig fig rules discussed in the book in Chapeter 1.

You can access webassign through Blackboard.

The Questions(Q) listed below are an aid to help you think about the concepts being studied. Unless included in the WebAssign homework, they will not be graded, but do them because they will assist in your understanding of the material and studying for exams. These questions may also be discussed in lecture.

There will be a homework problems that will state (Hand In). Be sure to SHOW ALL WORK on these hand in problems. Some of theses problems are mathematical analysis type problems. As stated before, these problems are to be hand graded will be handed into your Tutorial T.A.s box.

(Note: Q = Question, P = Problem)
