Midterm Exam 1
● Exam will be held Monday, Feb 17, 11:30-1:20 in Physics Lab room B3200A. Make sure you are available or make immediate arrangements with Archie.
● Exam rules may be found in course info (see home page > Course Info > Exams).
● Please manage your time carefully during the exam. Substantial partial credit will be given for heading the right direction.
● Exam will cover chapters 12 and 13 (all sections except 13.7 Central Forces). Questions on the exam will be taken from the Question Pool (see home page > Resources > Exam Question Pool).

Dependent Motion:
1. Define coordinates from fixed datum lines, along the path of each particle.
2. Relate the position coordinates to the cord length.
3. Separate equations are written for each cord.
4. Differentiate the position equation(s) to relate velocities and accelerations.
