Textbook: Physics for Scientists and engineers, 9th Edition (Serway and Jewit

Class discussion and participation will enhance the learning environment and will be important ingredients in our class. Please come to class prepared by reading material in advance so you have identified areas that are unclear to you and ask questions!

Please, bring your laptops and ask questions when something isn’t clear and especially if you find your curiosity has been picked!
