Hi everyone!

To enable you to study for the MIDTERM on Thursday (Nov 12, in class period)
there is no homework this week.  All office hours and discussion sections
are as normal, except we will attempt to move Thursday's office hours
to Wednesday (same time, same room). 
Thus: homework 11 DOES NOT EXIST :-) and the next one will be homework 12. 

Midterm 2 will focus on the material from Homeworks 6-10, Lectures 6A-11B, 
and Discussions 6-12. Of course you also need to be familiar with the topics 
from Midterm 1 since *inevitably* new material builds on old material, but the
focus will be on the new stuff: energy, collisions, constraints (rolling, 
string-length, etc), equilibrium & small oscillations, calculus of variations,
and Lagrangian mechanics.  

If you would like to try a PRACTICE EXAM, you can find last year's first 
midterm in this folder.  The solution is in the secure folder, but as always,
it is best to try the problems BEFORE looking at the solutions. The formula 
sheets that will be provided are in the top-level folder: 
	Formulae-1Dmath, -3Dmath, and -Midterm2.

The instructions are the same as for Midterm 1: 
(a) NO CALCULATORS are allowed during any exams, and
(b) the midterm will run a FULL 90 MINUTES, i.e. it will eat up both class
time and the 10-minute break after class. If you have a class or other
appointment right after lecture period, I will give you a signed note
at the exam that you can give to your other instructor to explain your
lateness. 

Cheers! Naomi
