Today we'll review some math we'll need very soon, including basic calculus and vectors in some detail. For some of you, this may be a bit of review, but I suspect that much of the vector topics we cover will be substantially new for most of you. At the end of class, there will be a short quiz (15 min or so) based on what we have covered in the lecture.
For Thursday, three things need to happen.
First, there are three more problems due at the beginning of class. After tomorrow's lecture, you should have all the information you need to solve them. Chapter 3 in the text covers the necessary material.
Second, we will begin studying motion in one dimension. For this, you should read chapter 2 before class on Thursday. Really ... even if you only skim.
Third, there will be a lab. I will post the procedure here later by Wednesday, please have a look at it before Thursday's class as well (it will be short).
