29:006 STUDY GUIDE FOR EXAM 2
WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 28, 2009

• Exam 2 will cover all material in Lecture 11 through Lecture 23 (all the lectures highlighted in blue) You are responsible for all lecture material, reading assignments and exercise and problem assignments. The exam will consist of 30 multiple choice questions, about 1/3 of these will be require a numerical answer, the remaining questions will be of the conceptual type. The numerical problems will be similar to the assigned problems in the textbook and to numerical examples presented in class. Students should go over all of these problems in preparation for this exam. The conceptual questions will refer to material covered in the lectures. Going over the lecture presentations is the best way to prepare for the conceptual questions. The textbook readings are only supplementary.

• Calculators will not be necessary for this exam and you will NOT be allowed to use them. The numerical problems will be designed so that only simple multiplication and division will be required.  I will choose the numbers so that you should be able to figure the answers without using a calculator.
   

• With the exam questions, I will provide a page containing all of the relevant formulas. All relevant numerical constants, such as g, will also be given.  You will not need any conversion factors.
  You do not need to memorize these formulas. You will get a copy of the formulas with the exam questions. A copy of the formulas is posted on the Exam Info Link
   

• Students will be required to hand in the answer form as well as the test form with your name when they are finished. You will need your student identification number.  You will be required to show your student picture ID or your driver's license when handing in your exam.
