Reminder: The Final is Wednesday May 23 2:45-4:45 PM Room: EAS-2000. A formula sheet similar to the one in the appendix of your workbook will be attached.

We'll be using the Activities Manual for Phys 311 and 369. I'll be introducing some extra sheets for Phys 369, so I'll keep a running list of the topics here for reference with links to sheets used that are not in the Course Manual.

I've written out a full set of lecture notes for this course as a possible study aid and summary of the text. Sometimes seeing things a little differently helps. It also emphasizes the main points and fills in a few blanks in the text. Just another service I provide.

• Lecture 1.pdf
• Lecture 2.pdf
• Lecture 3.pdf
• Lecture 4.pdf
• Lecture 5.pdf
• Lecture 6.pdf
• Lecture 7.pdf
• Lecture 8.pdf
• Lecture 9.pdf
• Lecture 10.pdf

Here's some old lecture notes as transparencies back when I used to lecture to several sections at once in the big lecture hall 8-1250. They're basically the same material, different examples, so I scanned them in as another possible study aid.
