Class Notes
Discussion and Lab (D/L) sections begin on the first day of instruction. You must attend your D/L sections during the first and second week, or you may be dropped. Switching sections is not allowed.
MT1 and MT2 is scheduled for 2 hours TBD. This is an out-of-class midterm. Plan accordingly. D.. show more

MT1 and MT2 is scheduled for 2 hours TBD. This is an out-of-class midterm. Plan accordingly. Do not schedule any conflicts.
Important note about enrollment: To successfully enroll in the course, you must ONLY enroll in the lab section. The LAB is the enrollment section; students are automatically enrolled in the corresponding DIS & LEC.
You will receive an error message:
1) if you try to enroll in the discussion or lecture,
2) if you try to enroll in a mismatched lab/discussion (if you enroll in Lab 104A, the system will add Discussion 104B and lecture 1 automatically),
3) if you try to enroll in multiple sections.
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
