21.06.2016 Supplemental Instruction Phys 221, Noah Exam review 1 SESSION SCHEDULE: Sunday 6:10p Tuesday 6:10p Friday 3:10p Physics B51 Every Session is an exam review!
2
Good Luck! Exam 1 Review Phys 221 – Supplemental Instruction Sessions continue as scheduled.
3
Exam Overview About 1/3 of the problems will stress conceptual understanding Don’t waste too much time on these Think carefully! Remaining 2/3 will be numerical problems to test ability to apply these concepts Rule out wrong answers Know your formula sheet 27 Questions, 2 hours (4.4 minutes/problem)
4
SUS Check Sign? Units? Sense?
5
Exam Content Breakdown (generally, not on syllabus, but past experience) Test will be about: 16% Mathematical Basics 27% Kinematics (Position, Velocity, Acceleration) 13% Circular Motion 44% Forces, Work, Newton’s Laws Normal force, friction, springs
6
Prepare yourself Practice Problems!! Practice tests (11 of them, with solutions) Old quizzes (make sure you understand mistakes) Book problems (have answers in the back) SI worksheets Recitation problems Concepts Textbook Online Summaries Lecture Slides
