Exam III

As you know, Exam III is tomorrow. The following sections are covered (exclusively):

Ch. 23, Sects. 1-4, 6
Ch. 26, Sects. 5-9
Ch. 27, Sects. 1-3, 5, 6, 8
Ch. 28, Sects. 1-3, 5

The exam will be half problem-based, and half multiple choice. Each portion is worth 50% of the total grade. The multiple choice will cover all sections above, while the problems will be restricted to the sections in Ch. 26-28 (i.e., no problems from Ch. 23).

There will be generous partial credit given for the problems, none for the multiple choice. You will be given a list of 8 problems of equal weight, and you can choose any 4 of them to solve. There will be 12 multiple choice, you should do all of those.

There will be one bonus question, worth about as much as one normal question.

Study example problems, your homework problems, and the quizzes to date (all solutions are now online). In particular pay attention to the conceptual questions within the chapter and at the end of the chapter.

You should bring a calculator and a formula sheet to the exam. The formula sheet can consists of two sides of an 8.5x11" sheet of paper - either two single sides, or one page front and back. It may contain any information on it you like, written in whatever manner you like.
