Physics 1100
Exam I
June 11, 2010
Name: ____________________________________
Instructions: Write your name in the appropriate place. You may lose points if you do not. Show
your work  answers without supporting work may not get full credit, and partial credit will only be
given for work done towards an answer, not for simply copying formulas from the formula sheet. Put
a box around all of your answers, and make sure your answers have appropriate units. If you
can’t algebraically solve the equations you get from applying the physics, put a box around them, and
clearly outline in words the rest of your solution. Although neatness doesn’t count in and of itself, the
neater your solution is, the more likely you are to get it correct, and it will be easier for me to find
partial credit in the event that you do not get the correct answer. Appeals after the exam for
increases in partial credit such as “I wrote it up (or down or whatever) here”, without it being
absolutely clear to me that what you wrote refers to the part of the problem in question, will not
be considered. Please be sure that any written explanations are very clear, and don’t be afraid to use
them to back up your solutions. Any “special case” equations that you use that were not on the
typed formula sheet that I gave to you before the exam must be justified on your paper. You can
do scrap work on the scrap paper provided, but please be sure that the solution on your test page is
complete; use the back of the page if necessary. I will not accept any scrap paper at the end of the
exam.
You have (almost) two hours for this exam. Don’t Panic. Good luck! 
