There will be three in-class tests during the semester (50 min each) and a final exam (2 hours).

You will be responsible for the textbook material covered, assigned readings, homework assignments, problems and exercises discussed in class, and lecture demonstrations. During the exam, you are required to work completely independently and adhere to the Honor Code.

The exam format will be (some or all of the following): multiple choice questions, true-false / conceptual questions, and numerical problems (partial credit).

All exams are closed-book, however I will provide you with a few of the most basic physics equations and values for constants of nature. You will be allowed to bring ONE 8.5"x11.0" REFERENCE SHEET with anything you choose written on both sides.

In addition, please bring a PEN and a POCKET CALCULATOR (not pre-programmed) for each test.

To help you prepare for the exams, a few days before each scheduled test, I will post a multiple-choice practice test with solutions on this Website. In addition, please study my detailed homework solutions, and the conceptual questions at the end of each textbook chapter (answer available in the "Student Solutions Manual and Study Guide").

The final exam (2 hours) is comprehensive, with a somewhat higher emphasis on material covered during the second half of the semester. The format will likely be multiple-choice only. I will offer both a regular and an alternate final exam.
