- Test 1: The test will include four
conceptual questions (from chapters 1-4), and three 2-part problems
(on chapters 1-3). As practice, see the Fall 2005 Test
1 (PDF file).
- Test 2: The test will
cover chapters 4-8. It will include four conceptual questions (one
each on chapters 4+5, 6, 7 and 8) and three 2-part problems (roughly
one each on chapters 4+5, 6, 7 or 8, but the solution of some problems
may require using equations from more than one chapter).
At the review session on Thursday, October 26th, we went over the following:
–
Ch. 4: Equations to remember, problem 4-29, and suggested practice
questions.
– Ch. 5: Equations to remember, problem 5-10, and suggested practice
problems.
– Ch. 5: Problem 5-48.
– Ch. 6: Equations to remember, problem 6-30, and suggested practice
problems.
– Ch. 7: Equations to remember, problem 7-32, and suggested practice
problems.
– Ch. 8: Equations to remember, problem 8-62, and suggested practice
problems.
As practice, you may use problems 6 and 7 of the previously posted Test
1 (PDF file) from last
year, and last year's Test 2 (PDF file).
- Final Exam: The final exam will
be comprehensive, although more emphasis will be placed on the material
we covered since Test 2. Checklists of concepts and equations for each
chapter are posted here.
As practice, you
may use last year's Test 3 and Final
Exam (PDF files), and the part
on heat and thermodyamics from last year's PHYS 214 Test
1 (last year
those topics were covered in the Spring semester).
All greyed-out questions and problems are on topics that we have not covered
this semester, and will not be on the final exam.
There will be one question and one 1-part problem on each of the following
topics (also listed are problems that were solved in the review session
on Sunday):
– Chapters 2/3: Translational kinematics (I solved a problem of the
type of 3-58).
– Chapters 4/5: Newton's laws and forces (I solved a problem
of the type of 5-63).
– Chapters 6/7: Work, energy and momentum (I solved a problem
of the type of 6-87).
– Chapters 8/9: Circular motion, rotation and gravity (I solved
problem 8-28).
– Chapters 10: Fluids (I solved
problem 10-42).
– Chapters 11: Temperature and heat (I solved
problem 11-44).
– Chapters 12: Kinetic theory and thermodynamics (I solved
problem 12-23).
– Chapters 13: Oscillations (I started solving
problem 13-45, but made a sign mistake and did not get the same answer
as in the book for part a; the answer in the book is correct).
