Homework

There will be 13 homeworks assigned, and the best 10 will count towards your final grade. On each homework, 2 questions will be graded at random, and there will be a maximum of 20 points on each homework, so all the homeworks will count for a maximum of 200 points. Credit will also be given for each homework attempted. There will be no credit for missed homeworks. Homework should be turned in before 4:00pm on a Friday at the Physics office (PSF 470) - where you should give it to the person at the desk by the front door, who will time stamp it. There will be 12 questions each week - two questions will be graded at random for 5 points each. The remaining 10 questions will be given a point each for a good faith attempt. The graded recitations will be handed back in the next recitation section meeting.
