PHY 108 Spring 2005
(4/25) The final exam is, again, scheduled to be on 5/5, next Thursday, in 112 Norton, from 11:45am to 02:45pm. The final exam will cover chapter 29 (sections 4 and 5), and chapters 30, 31, and 32. The format of the exam is similar to that of the midterms. The exam is not cumulative in the sense that I will ask questions only from the chapters mentioned above. However, you need to understand the material on which these chapters are built.
(4/23) HW for Chapter 31 (Magnetism and Matter) is now online.
(4/19) Note that Chapter 31 (Magnetism and Matter) is now included and HW will be posted for this chapter. We are going to skip chapter 33.
(3/31) The third midterm will be on
Thursday, 4/7, that is, a week from today. The exam will cover the
chapters on Direct-Current Circuits, The Effects of Magnetic
Fields and the chapter on The Production and Properties of
Magnetic Fields up to and including section 3. Bear in mind that
this material is challenging, so for best result you should redo
all HW problems in preparation for the exam.
(3/31) The final exam has been
scheduled by UB. It will be on Thursday, 5/5, 11:45 AM - 02:45 PM
in room Norton 112.

semester are available online here.
(2/28) The second midterm has been
postponed by two days. It will be on Thursday, 3/10 (next week), in class.
(2/19) The results for the first exam
are posted here.
(2/9) The first midterm exam is on
Thursday, 2/10, in class. The exam covers the first three chapters
in the book, 21, 22 and 23. The exam is closed book, you can
prepare a one-page equation sheet with formulae only, no worked
problems. The best way to prepare for the exam is to review the HW
problems, and the examples that are solved in detail in the book.
Good luck!
(2/2) The third (Gauss' Law) HW is
