MT1 on 2/21/24, 8pm-10pm, room Dwinelle 155; MT2 on 4/3/24, 7pm-9pm, rooms EVAN10 and HFAXA1. This is an out-of-class midterm. Plan accordingly. Do not schedule any conflicts.
The LAB is the enrollment section; students are automatically enrolled in the corresponding DIS & LEC. You must give physics enrollment priority if you need this class for graduation requirements as our courses tend to fill up quickly. If you are wait-listed for the LAB section, then you are not enrolled in Physics 7A. Additionally, if you are wait-listed, you may not attend your DIS/LAB sections.
Prerequisites: High school physics; Math 1A; Math 1B (which may be taken concurrently) show less
