Homework and Reading Assignments for
Physics 9B, Winter 2007
Last updated: 3/5/07
Problem sets:
The problem sets are due in the beginning
of the class of the specified dates. The
reader will come to pick up the papers 10 minutes after the beginning
of the class. Late homework will not
be accepted. If for some reason you
have to turn in your homework early, you can leave it in my mailbox at
the second floor of the Phy/Geo building send me a note by email. It's
also a good idea to put
the course and section number, i.e., Phy9B, or the names of the
reader/instructor in addition to your name on the first page so that it
can find its way to the right place in case of mix-up.
The reader will tell you where and when to get the graded papers back.
If you have questions about grading or regrading of the problem sets,
please contact the reader.
