PHYS 1010 6.0 Physics

Special resources, such as Maple worksheets and weblinks will appear here. For a simple Maple tutorial (and a lot more) you can go to my special webpage for computational physics: Maple for Physics

Clicker Problems If your clicker (PRS) fails, you'll need an exchange. That should be possible through the bookstore (eventually), for the time being get in touch with me!
