Test Scores w/bonus and Grades to date

Grades will be updated throughout the week
People have been reporting discrepancies with the attendance
grades - please contact me outside of class if your attendance grade
does not reflect your attendance. Make sure you include when you registered
for this class and when you have been out on excused absences.
Friday is the last day to withdraw
from classes w/o penalty. If you withdraw from this class, remember
that you have to withdraw from both the lecture and lab courses separately.
We decided to that only the top 80% of your WebAssign
written solution scores would count towards your course grade.
I will also allow you to drop your
2 lowest quiz scores.
GOAL solutions will be posted later today
I have decided that although it is important to make
sure you have a good set of notes, I am not going to collect them. It
is your responsibility to take good notes.
Test 2 is one week from Friday
Test 2 notes will be posted Friday

Assigned Problem from class: Use Gauss'
Law to find the E-field inside a uniformly charged cylinder of radius
R = 0.30 m with charge density 2.5e-6 C per m cubed at a distance r
from the center of the cylinder (r < R). Graph the E-field as a function
of r from r = 0 + epsilon (where epsilon is very small) to the limit
as r => infinity. Hint: use your notes from the Gauss
Law and cylinder problem below.
