Lecture HomeWork 3 
Physics 121, Fall 2010
Prof. E. F. Redish
Lecture homework consists of 2 parts:
- One part is to be done online in the
MasteringPhysics (MP) environment. This includes a few MP problems plus a few
problems from my collection. The MP problems will be exercises, worth 1 point
each. You may use any hints that are available and you can do them as many
times as you want. The problems from my collection are worth 2-3 points each
- The second part is one of the problems from my collection. It should be
prepared carefully and neatly on
paper (preferably on a computer and printed out). It is worth 5 points.
- Please be certain to put your name and section number on every page
and to NOT CONNECT THE PAGES with staples, clips, tape, or dogears.
Connecting them may result in you homework being damaged or destroyed.
Both parts will be due at the beginning of lecture on Fridays.
No homework will be accepted after the solutions are released on BlackBoard
(at about 2:30 PM on the Friday when it is due).
