Homework Instructions

The pdf image files offer a convenient way to browse through the assignment or print it out. However, the image files are not actually very useful since they cannot be edited or interacted with in any way.

The best way to do the homework is to download the LaTeX version to a file on your own computer. Then use Scientific Notebook, or Scientific Workplace to manipulate what you are given in order to produce solutions to the problems. Then e-mail the resulting LaTeX file to: rgowdy@saturn.vcu.edu

The Mozilla Firefox browser has a partial work-around for displaying *.tex files without saving them to a folder. Right-click on the link, choose "Open Link in IE Tab Plus" and then "Switch Rendering Engine." That produces a blank tab and causes Scientific Workplace/Notebook to open the file.

Remember that a copy of Scientific Notebook can be checked out for free from the Physics Department Office.
