THE BOOK (Vol. II) `cbPhysicsIIb24.pdf (2.4 Mb)`	pdf version of Calculus-Based Physics II. You need Acrobat Reader to read this file. If you have a high-speed connection you should feel free to left click on the file name to view the book. You can save it to your computer from within Acrobat Reader. If you have a low-speed internet connection, you might prefer to right click on the pdf filename and select "Save Link As..." to download the file to your computer where you can view it with Acrobat Reader at your leisure.
`cbPhysicsIIb24.doc.zip (1.5 Mb)`	MS Word version of Calculus-Based Physics II. Click on the file name to download the book to your computer as a compressed MS Word file. Once you have it on your computer, unzip it. Then you can edit it using MS Word 98 or later. (See also the Symbols Fonts under 1st Semester Downloads.)
`coverIIa1.pdf (34 kb)`	pdf version of cover page and spine text. I provide each of my students with a hard copy of the book in a 3-ring loose-leaf view binder with the cover and spine text posted here.
`coverIIa1.doc.zip (6 kb)`	MS Word version of cover page and spine text.
`formulaIIa4.pdf formulaIIa4.doc.zip`	Physics Formula Sheet The pdf version of the 2nd semester formula sheet can be viewed directly. The doc.zip file unzips to a one-page MS Word^TM document. (See also Symbols Fonts under 1st Semester Downloads.) (There is no html version of the 2nd semester formula sheet.)
`sacProbsIIa14.pdf (753 kb)sacIIprobsIn-RandomOrder.pdf (525 kb)`	pdf version of 2nd semester SAC Physics Problems. There is a set of physics problems for each chapter in the book. The numbering scheme for the problems does not conform to the chapter numbers. The current plan is not to change the problem numbers. So, if, for instance, you create a nice solution to SAC114 problem 2, it will always be the solution to SAC114 problem 2, even in later versions of the SAC Physics Problems. Refer to the Fall 2004 syllabus below to see which problems correspond to which chapters. In preparing for the final, students are advised to play "What Kind of Problem is This?" using the sacIIprobsIn-RandomOrder.pdf file that is also provided here.
`sacProbsIIa14.doc.zip (628 kb)`	MS Word version of 2nd semester SAC Physics Problems. This file contains a single document. (See also the Symbols Fonts under 1st Semester Downloads.)
`Solutions to SAC Physics Problems (Link)`	Link to solutions of the 2nd semester SAC Physics Problems. The solutions come in a variety of forms: gif files, QuickTime^TM movies, wmv files, and ScreenCam and WinCam^TM movie executables. The link at left takes you to a page with a few sample files and a bunch of zip files. The file types are described on that page.
`Class-QuestionsIIa5.pdf (577 kb)` `Class- QuestionsIIa5.ppt.zip (455 kb)`	2nd semester Class Questions: I use a combination of these questions (provided here in pdf and as a zipped set of Microsoft PowerPoint^TM slides) and Dr. Eric Mazur's Concept Tests (see Off-Site Resources ) for almost all the classroom sessions I hold with my students. The students read the chapter in advance of the classroom session and, instead of listening to me lecture on concepts they read about, the students practice applying the concepts in class. Students indicate their responses by means of colored indexed cards, or by means of the "clickers" of the Beyond Question^TM classroom response system.
`Blackboard-Package-TestsIIa1.zip (2.9 Mb)`	2nd semester On-Line Quizzes Blackboard^TM Export file. This is a zip file created by Blackboard^TM using the course export tool. This will be of use to you if you are using Blackboard^TM 6.0 or later. If so, just download this zip file to your computer and bring it into your Blackboard^TM course using the Blackboard^TM Import Package utility (when Blackboard^TM asks you to choose, select "Tests, Pools, and Surveys"). There is a quiz for every lecture/chapter. The value of the quizzes lies in the feedback portion of each.
`OnLineQuiz-QuestionsIIa1.pdf (2.7 Mb)` `OnLineQuiz-AnswersIIa1.pdf (4.0 Mb)`	pdf version of the 2nd-semester On-Line Quizzes and the Answers with Feedback to a quiz-taker who simply selected the first possible answer to every question. The quizzes will be more useful to you if you have Blackboard^TM 6.0 or later but at least you can see what they look like here.
`Spring2005-Syllabus.pdf (36 kb)`	pdf version of old 2nd semester syllabus, grading information and laboratory policies. The syllabus comes in handy for establishing the SAC physics problem to lecture correspondence.
`Spring2005-Syllabus.doc.zip (18 kb)`	MS Word version of old 2nd semester syllabus, grading information, and laboratory policies.
