Homework Assignments
Below are the assigned problems to be submitted to the online site, masteringphysics.com. These problems are from
the book and are labeled as “Exercises”. The online site may also have one or two extra problems not from the book
that you should complete. I would suggest trying the discussion questions along with your reading, but they will not
be graded. The problems marked in bold will be collected in class on the day the homework is due. Online
homework is due that night at midnight.
