Homework + Practice Problems from the 7th Edition

Perhaps the most important thing you will learn from this course is how to think logically and solve problems. This is an important skill that can be applied to any subsequent area of study. Solving problems yourself and discussing them with your instructor and your classmates is the best way to learn.

Homework problems from the textbook will be assigned via the WileyPLUS online learning and evaluation system. These assignments count for credit towards your final grade in the course (up to 5% of the final mark). A selection of conceptual problems is given in the textbook, others are to be found online. Additional recommended problems from the textbook are to be found here. You are encouraged to solve as many as you can. Be aware that reading solutions prepared by someone else is no substitute for working them out yourself. The problems listed are for the 7th and 8th editions of the text where they appear largely in a different order. This file shows the correspondence between problems in the two editions. Note that numerical answers for odd-numbered questions are given in the back of the textbook. Note also that copies of exams from previous years and answer keys for them are provided for your reference in the Laboratory Manual.

Additional aids to solving problems and understanding the important concepts are available in the Read, Study & Practice section of the WileyPLUS site . Here you can explore many helpful resources, including the Student Study Guide, Interactive Solutions, Interactive Learningware, Concept Simulations, Web Links and Video Experiments.
