MCG 2130 - Thermodynamics I
Problem Labs
Discussion
Groups :
Discussion group (problem
lab) sessions will be held each week where you will solve problems. In
the problem lab, you will solve problems under the direction of the teaching
assistant. In each session, the exercises will cover material currently
being discussed in the lecture sessions.
At the end of each session, a test on the subject discussed in the
previous week will be given. The
duration of the tests will be 20-30 minutes. Attendance is
mandatory.
There are also weekly
suggested problems. These problems will
not be marked, but solutions will be available on reserve in the library and
available for download on this web page.
These problems represent the minimal amount of work required to study
for this course. However, it is
recommended to solve additional problems at the end of each chapter.
