PHYS 1010 6.0 Physics

Assignments

All your assignments will be posted here. They will consist of daily, lecture-specific reading assignments; (almost) weakly EWA online assignments; weekly tutorial assignments [a minimum practice set]

Please bring your clickers to every class!

FALL 2012: Webassign: WA16, final installment to final exam prep, comes on-line April 4, but is optional (not for marks).

Reading Assignment: For Monday, April 8, pre-read notes for the day posted in Notes. There will be no clicker quiz! If you need to prep for the exam, then do so.

Knight Workbook Solutions The workbook pages can be used as a first step (while you pre-read, or to process after reading/after atending class) to check your understanding before you proceed with doing Exercises and Problems from the text. I will post complete solution sets for the workbooks here as pdf. Look up answers only after credible attempts to tackle them yourself! This is not meant to be a replacement for attending tutorials, but it is a fall-back option for those who have time conflicts with the slots offered. The workbook does not include challenging problems (such as appear on tests), but easy problems that check understanding and form a basis for doing the challenging problems. the solution files: www.yorku.ca/marko/PHYS1010/Knight/Kxx.pdf, where xx is the chapter number according to Knight (not Giordano), e.g., 01, 02,..,10, 11, etc.

Problem Solving Sheets

Postings from 2010/2011:

Info about courses that can be taken after PHYS1010:

Second-year physics courses worth taking:

PHYS 2020 3.0 (Fall) deepens the Electricity and Magnetism topics. PHYS 2211 1.0 (Fall) is the lab that goes with it (separate course). Engineering students have this course in their schedule.

PHYS 2060 3.0 (Winter) deepens the Waves and Optics topics. It also covers geometrical optics (image formation, etc., which we didn't cover). Most students will have taken 2020 before going to this course, but that is not too essential given how much E&M we did in 1010. PHYS 2212 1.0 (Winter) is the lab that goes with it (separate course). Note: Physics and Astronomy majors take the labs as PHYS2213 3.0 with extra lectures and assignments on Error Analysis.

PHYS 2040 3.0 (Fall) does special relativity (more about intuitive physics than mathematics-based), and continues with the modern physics ideas we ended 1010 with. Perhaps the most popular 2nd year physics course for non-majors as it is very conceptual.

PHYS 2010 3.0 (Winter) deepens your Newtonian mechanics understanding. You'll solve harder problems there than in first year, and will do more (simple) differential-equations based material. This course has MATH pre- and co-requisites to watch out for. Take it if you like to apply mathematics skills and develop more intuition for problem solving.

Previously assigned:

1.3-1.8. 2.2-2.4. 3.1-3.8. 4.1-4.6, 5.1-5.5, 6.1-4, 7.1-8, 8.1-6, 9.1-6, 11.1-6, 17.1-5; 18.1-5; 19.1-5; 20.1-5; 21.2-6, 22.5, 23.1-2,4; 12.1-8; 13.6; 23.6; 25.2,25.4-6; 28.1-2, 14.3

On-line (WebAssign) Assignment In WA go to Resources: you will find many PDFs that pose comprehensive problems, then give you the strategy to solve them. Try them out (to solve, not just to click your way through!). I will post more before April 9 for the final exam on the 19th. The exam will consist of 7 problems of similar difficulty.

These tutorial assignments are not for hand-in. Working on them before the tutorial will help you a lot, you'll get more out of the tutorial. You can do workbook exercises on your own, especially if you find the first assigned exercises/problems too hard to do on your own.
