Phy207 Assigned Problems

Exercise HW problems should be studied before attending discussion sections.  You may be quizzed on these during the discussion session.  Other than such quizzes, these exercise problems will not be turned in for grading.  However, exercise problems may reappear on the course examinations.
Graded HW problems are to be turned in for grading following discussion sections, on the days indicated below.  Graded HW problems may also reappear on the course examinations.
Web assignments should be emailed to me.  These will each count just as much as a single graded homework problem.


Web Assignment #1, due ASAP:  Find out what your student ID # is and email it to me.
