Homework

 

Homework will be assigned online through MasteringPhysics for Young/Freedman University Physics 11e. Weekly problem sets will be due each Thursday at 9 pm. You are responsible for logging in each week to check the homework assignment. Credit for problems submitted late will decrease to 50% over the course of 24 hours after the deadline.

When you bought the text for the course, you should have also received a MasteringPhysics Student Access Kit. Follow its directions to register with MasteringPhysics. If you bought a used textbook, you can purchase online access using a credit card.

There are two pieces of information you will need to enroll in the course at MasteringPhysics:
     Course ID: VELKOVSKA117B07
     Student ID: your Vanderbilt Student Number (just as it will appear on our grade sheets, xxx-xx-xxxx)


POLICY ON COOPERATION  The purpose of the homework is for a student to learn how to solve the problems - solving the problems is the measure of understanding the material. The homework counts 15%, the tests and the final count 81%.

You are responsible for understanding the material at a level where you can solve problems on a test in a reasonable amount of time. It is your responsibility to make sure whatever you do on the homework, you gain that level of understanding.
