Important:

ˆ Home work is due in the beginning of the class on the date mentioned above.
ˆ Please note that providing answers without showing any work will not qualify as correct.
So to get full points, solve all the problems and show EACH AND EVERY STEP.
ˆ To get the full credit make your work readable to the grader. It is students’ responsibility to make his/her
thought process clear to the grader. Our grader will grade whatever is written on the paper, not whatever
you understand.
ˆ All the conventions followed in the homework are same as that of lectures.
ˆ Only selected problems from the homework will be graded.
1) Use 8.5" × 11" plain white printer paper only. Do not use paper torn from a spiral binder.
Use only one side of the paper.
2) Write neatly and legibly. STAPLE your homework pages together at the left top corner,
write page numbers on the right top, and put parenthesis around the numbers e.g., (7).
3) Submit the homework not later then the deadline in class, when it is due.

“From a long view of the history of mankind – seen from, say, ten thousand years from now
– there can be little doubt that the most significant event of the 19th century will be judged
as Maxwell’s discovery of the laws of electrodynamics. The American Civil War will pale into
provincial insignificance in comparison with this important scientific event of the same decade.”
