Homework from Halliday, Resnick and Walker's Fundamentals of Physics, 8th Edition


Note 1: since this is the first semester in which I've used Halliday and Resnick for this course, these assignments will be updated throughout the semester.

Note 2: Unless a separate category is given, the "Minimum" questions and problems will match the corresponding items on WebAssign.

Chapter   Questions Problems
21: Electric Charge Minimum: 4,6,10 3,15,24,26,39,54b**,59,61,68
Recommended: 1,8,9abf* 13,27,28,31,36,38,40,49,50,52,53,64,65
Interesting Challenges: 5 4,7,21,35,44,63
* Be sure to read the question carefully. It would be good to know how to answer for all 4 situations, not just situation (1). ** You should do only part (b), WITHOUT using the equation from part (a), and without using the small angle approximation. (You will only need free body diagrams, and Newton's Second Law.)
