Instructions 1. No extra books or papers are permitted in this test. You are only permitted the use of provided materials. You may use the back of the pages to do your rough work. 2.

The duration of this exam is 1 h.

3.

Calculators may not be shared.

4.

In order to receive full credit for your answer, all your work must be shown (units, formulas where necessary, dimensional analysis). You will also be graded on proper usage of significant figures and units.

5. Your attention is drawn to the college policy on cheating. This policy will be enforced.
