PHY 2048 - Physics with Calculus 1 - Summer 2015


WileyPlus online graded homework (due by 11:59pm on the dates shown below)

To enter the WileyPlus online homework system you need the access code that came with the hardcopy textbook you purchased at the bookstore; or came with the eBook you purchased on-line at Wiley for UF (here). Have your access code ready when you first access the system. Follow the instructions posted on the navigation link Register WileyPlus to register. Do not delay in logging-on/registering on the system. Not getting your homework in because you waited to the last minute and had trouble registering will not excuse you from the resulting zero on the homework assignment.

The first online homework assignment (Set 1) is due Sunday, May 17. Once the due date/time has passed no further input of answers for credit will be accepted. It is your responsibility to get your homework in on time. Starting late and enocuntering last minute computer/local server problems does not excuse you from this responsibility.

WileyPlus Homework Problems:

  • The problems come from your textbook. However, the numbers are randomized for each student (i.e. the problems will be same as the textbook but with different numbers).
  • You will have five tries to get the correct answer. You will not be counted off for "significant figures", however, your answer must be correct to within 2%.
  • For most of the problems WileyPlus will give you a "hint" after the third incorrect try and for some of the problems WileyPlus will give you the solution after the assignment due date.
  • There is 10% "forgiveness factor" that accounts for illness, missed classes etc. The details on course grading scheme is provided as a separate pdf document below.

The course grade formula (PDF) shows how your homework points are calculated.
