Physics 303K Course summary

(Chiu 4-28-98)

This page contains most of the basic formulas in Physics 303K. Fro each of the porblems encountered, students are encouraged to begin from a relevant subset of these formulas to arrive at the specific sxpressions needed. For this reasom, naby of the "ready-made" formulas given in the textbook have been systematically omitted. This page is intended to be a guide for doing homework problems, reviewing for the exams, and to be refernced for Physics 303K and for your future use. During any exam, questions on this page will not be answered. However, at other times your questions are very welcome.
