– Chapter 21 equations and sample problem.
– Chapter 22 equations and sample problem.
– Chapter 23 equations and sample problem.
– Chapter 24 equations and sample problem.
Test 2: The test will cover chapters 25–27. Its format will include a few short questions and three 2-part problems. Review material:

Final Exam:
Format: The final exam will include four questions and four problems on the material of the previous four tests, plus one of each from Chapter 34.
Material from Tests 1–4: Be familiar with concepts and equations from all sections that we covered in chapters 21 through 33, but in terms of practicing by solving problems, I would give a lower priority to Chapters 21 and 31, and to multiloop circuits in Chapter 27.
Chapter 34: In addition to being able to answer questions on the material we covered, be able to solve problems like 9 through 16 for mirrors, and 59 through 68 for lenses.
Note: Make sure you remember the equations from the Phys 211 course listed with the review material for Test 3.
