24. 12/93/2013PHY 113 C Fall 2013 -- Lecture 2524 iclicker question How many equation sheets should you prepare for Final Exam? A.0 B.1 C.2 D.3 E.4

25. 12/93/2013PHY 113 C Fall 2013 -- Lecture 2525 General advice on how to prepare for Final Exam  Review fundamental concepts and their corresponding equations  Develop equation sheet(s) that helps you solve example problems on all of the material. You can assume that empirical constants and parameters will be given to you; they need not take up space on your equation sheet.  Practice problem solving techniques.  If you discover unanswered questions, please contact me.

26. 12/93/2013 Advice: 1.Keep basic concepts and equations at the top of your head. 2.Practice problem solving and math skills 3.Develop an equation sheet that you can consult. Equation Sheet Problem solving skills Math skills 26 PHY 113 C Fall 2013 -- Lecture 25

27. 12/93/2013PHY 113 C Fall 2013 -- Lecture 2527 Problem solving steps 1.Visualize problem – labeling variables 2.Determine which basic physical principle(s) apply 3.Write down the appropriate equations using the variables defined in step 1. 4.Check whether you have the correct amount of information to solve the problem (same number of knowns and unknowns). 5.Solve the equations. 6.Check whether your answer makes sense (units, order of magnitude, etc.).
