Paper Problem Set 3
Due Wed 29 Sept 04


Please write your homework neatly. Don't try to cram all the problems into the minimum space. Show your work clearly, and useful diagrams are always appropriate and may get extra points. You may work with others, but the work should be your own. I expect numeric answers to have a reasonable number of significant figures and proper units.


Note: WebAssign grades only on the answer; I will grade only (mostly) on the method! Make your method clear.
