INSTRUCTOR: Xiangxin (Shine) Liu

Phone: 419-530-4901;

Email: xliu@physics.utoledo.edu.

Office: MH 5013;

Office Hours: MW 1:30-3:30 or by appointment

PREREQUISITES:
Official prerequisite: Physics 2130(Mechanics, Heat, Sound)
Recommended prerequisite: Math 1860 (Calculus II)

Lectures: MW 5:30-7:30 PM (10minutes break)

Exam:

Midterm1: Wednesday, Sep. 12, 5:30-6:30 pm,

Midterm2: Wednesday, Oct. 10, 5:30-6:30 pm,

Midterm2: Wednesday, Nov. 14, 5:30-6:30 pm,

Final Exam: Monday, Dec. 10, 5:30-7:30 pm,

Note:1) CLASS TIMES: Class meets MW from 5:30 to 7:30 PM in MH2002 for lectures, exams, and plus lab at various times.  You must register for two things: PHYS 2140-080, which determines your participation in this course, plus a lab section 2140-02x or 03x. 

2) We will use the first half of the two hours class time for midterm exam on the designated date (see syllabus). The final exam will cover from ch. 21 through 36 and be held on Monday 10 December from 5:30-7:30 PM in MH2002.

GRADING:  The course grade will be made up of the following components, weighted as:

Laboratory 10%    (But you must pass the lab to pass the course.)

Homework 15% (handwriting)

Class participation 10%

Midterm exams 40% (#1: 10%, #2: 15%, #3: 15%)
Final exam 25%

The laboratory is a mandatory component of the course, and a score of 18/30 or better must be earned to pass the course. If you are repeating the course, you do not need to repeat the laboratory if you have taken the course within the last year and earned a score of 24/30 or better in the laboratory. Talk to Sue Hickey (MH 2017) to waive the lab.
