Hi everyone,

My office hours will end early tomorrow, Thursday 4/29, as I have been assigned to observe another class at that time. I will be able to answer some quick questions after class but will have to leave promptly at 4pm.

-Prof. Reitz

Today during class we will take our second exam. Please read the following instructions carefully.

Hi everyone,

Based on our discussion in class, I updated Problem 9 in the Review Sheet (as written, the problem was leading to very large numbers which caused calculation errors in most calculators). I have kept the differential equation the same, changed the initial point. It should now work correctly.

I also added the solution, along with some of the values found along the way. Let me know if you have questions.

Best,
Prof. Reitz
