Resources for Physics 113

This page contains links to  handouts and other interesting material. The lecture transparencies and homework solutions are available on the Carmen course management system. You can log into Carmen with your OSU "name.number" username, and your regular OSU password.

Note that the posted material complements the textbook and the lectures, it does not replace them. In particular, examples are shown on the whiteboard during lecture, and cannot be found in the posted material.
