IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • The MasteringPhysics pre-lab on-line quiz must be submitted before 8:00 AM on the morning of the experiment for your lab section.
  • Should you fail to submit the pre-lab quiz before the deadline, you will be barred from the corresponding lab and obtain a zero grade for that lab.
  • Attendance in all lab/tutorial sessions is mandatory. Exception from a laboratory experiment is granted only for illness, duly authenticated by a mediacal certificate (see University Regulation 14.4).  No more than two exceptions will normally be granted.
  •  A passing grade in laboratory work is required in order to pass the course.
