The idea is that you will use your study time to focus on the fundamental ideas and to practice solving problems rather than to memorize formulae. Second, the equation sheet alone does not give you any indication of when a particular formula is or is not appropriate. For that, .I you must understand the links between the basic physics and the end results. Sleeping late or having work due in another course is not a compelling reason. Each homework assignment will contain a mix of up to 4 different types of problems.
Additional details are on the separate handout.
Most assignments will be given and graded on the Web so that you have nearly-instant feedback. These are very brief Web-based essays intended to help introduce a new topic. You should usually be able to give a reasonable answer after reading the appropriate sections of the chapter. Selected student answers will also be used to launch discussion in class. The Web-based exercises are intended to reinforce basic concepts and definitions.
