Class notes from Oct 7 2013
Just for Fun:
- The Physics of Cow-Tipping (should this be on Mythbusters?)
- 2013 Ig Nobel Prize results (cows make an appearance again).
- String Theory as you have never heard/seen it (by a McGill physics grad student; my BSc is from McGill...)
- Universal Law of Micturation (when you gotta go, you gotta go...) - fluid dynamics in action.
Test 1
- Equation sheet
- Test 1 from a previous year (just the questions)
- Test 1 from a previous year (questions and solutions)
- Solutions to Test 1
Test 2
- Equation sheet
- Test 2 from a previous year (just the questions)
- Test 2 from a previous year (questions and solutions)
- Test 2 from yet another previous year (questions and solutions; but ignore problem 4, which is based on material that is not on this year's test 2, but could be on test 3).
- Solutions to Test 2
Test 3
- Equation sheet
- Test 3 from a previous year (just the questions)
- Test 3 from a previous year (questions and solutions)
- Solutions to Test 3
Final Exam
