Course description
The subject of this class is SUCCESS…what success is and how to achieve it in college. We will do this by introducing you to the college culture to help you make a smooth transition to college life. This course will ask you an important question: What are YOU prepared to do to become a successful student? If you do want to succeed in college and see it as a process of skill development for becoming a better student, learning how to learn, and beginning a worthwhile career, then you must put the time and effort into developing the strategies we will be talking about this semester.
Learning outcomes
When you have successfully completed this course, you should be able to:
- Manage time effectively for academic purposes.
- Apply textbook reading strategies and test-taking techniques.
- Identify areas of academic interest and career goals to create an educational plan.
- Use effective note-taking techniques.
- Set long and short-term academic goals.
- Draw support, advice, and assistance from peers.
- Locate learner support programs resources; identify the services offered, and how to access them.
How to succeed in this class (aka how to get an 'a')
To create the very best environment for supporting your success and the success of your classmates, this course has five important rules. The more challenging these rules are for you, the more value you will experience by adopting them. By choosing to follow these rules, you are choosing to be successful in this course, in college, and in your life. These rules will support your success in every goal you pursue.
-
Show up! Choose to attend every scheduled class period in its entirety.
-
Do the work! Complete all reading assignments prior to class and choose to do your very best work in preparing all of your assignments and hand them in on time.
-
Participate actively! Choose to stay focused and involved in every class, offering your best comments, questions, and answers, when appropriate.
-
Use an Academic Planner! Each student is expected to have a personal planner to record and track important academic assignments, personal appointments, exams and important academic dates. You may select any form of planner including a calendar, notebook, iPhone, Blackberry, etc. Your planner must be organized and complete and include everything you are responsible for in your classes for the entire semester. You will show me your planner in class at periodic intervals throughout the semester.
-
Be proactive! Look ahead and anticipate. Plan for setbacks. Communicate with your instructor. Take responsibility!
Questions & Answers
what does the ideal gas law states
Three charges q_{1}=+3\mu C, q_{2}=+6\mu C and q_{3}=+8\mu C are located at (2,0)m (0,0)m and (0,3) coordinates respectively. Find the magnitude and direction acted upon q_{2} by the two other charges.Draw the correct graphical illustration of the problem above showing the direction of all forces.
To solve this problem, we need to first find the net force acting on charge q_{2}. The magnitude of the force exerted by q_{1} on q_{2} is given by F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}} where k is the Coulomb constant, q_{1} and q_{2} are the charges of the particles, and r is the distance between them.

What is the direction and net electric force on q_{1}= 5µC located at (0,4)r due to charges q_{2}=7mu located at (0,0)m and q_{3}=3\mu C located at (4,0)m?
what is the change in momentum of a body?
Capacitor is a separation of opposite charges using an insulator of very small dimension between them. Capacitor is used for allowing an AC (alternating current) to pass while a DC (direct current) is blocked.

Someone
which has a higher temperature, 1cup of boiling water or 1teapot of boiling water which can transfer more heat 1cup of boiling water or 1 teapot of boiling water explain your . answer
I believe temperature being an intensive property does not change for any amount of boiling water whereas heat being an extensive property changes with amount/size of the system.
Someone
temperature for any amount of water to boil at ntp is 100⁰C (it is a state function and and intensive property) and it depends both will give same amount of heat because the surface available for heat transfer is greater in case of the kettle as well as the heat stored in it but if you talk.....
Someone
about the amount of heat stored in the system then in that case since the mass of water in the kettle is greater so more energy is required to raise the temperature b/c more molecules of water are present in the kettle

how do lnternal energy measures
Esrael
Two bodies attract each other electrically. Do they both have to be charged? Answer the same question if the bodies repel one another.
No. According to Isac Newtons law. this two bodies maybe you and the wall beside you.
Attracting depends on the mass och each body and distance between them.

Are you really asking if two bodies have to be charged to be influenced by Coulombs Law?
