UMM PHYS 1091: Principles of Physics I
Syllabus & Kristin's Office Hours	Calendar This is the calendar as it happened in 08. Some changes are to be expected!	Serway Practice Problems	Things to Memorize	Lab Spreadsheets	Campus Excuse Policy	Tutors' Hours Jonna, Arthur, Fairy & Zach B can help with this class.

News: (updated 17-nov-09 10:01 PM ) My version of the Demo Lab writeup. I have just modified the course calendar, with the most significant change being which lab is the subject of Formal Lab Report #2. This will now be Lab #8: Centripetal Acceleration, and you will again have two weeks of lab time to devote to it. (They will be consecutive weeks this time, however.) Old News Items
Free Advice, Math Reviews, etc.	Solutions (mostly)	Other Nifty Stuff
General Suggestions for College Success	E-Reserve Solns Serway end-of-chapter practice problems	Physics Applets Dynamics: Projectile/Satellite Orbits, Balance of Blocks (center of mass experiment) and various Waves demos (or here for lame browsers).
Course Concept Map	“Where do they meet?” Practice Problems	Just funny if you've ever seen the "Powers of Ten" short film. (If you haven't seen it you might check it out from Brigg's library some time - it's a classic, and quite short.)
