The first CAPA homework is due WEEK 1, Friday Jan. 18. (It's mostly review of 1110) See below for login notes. (The syllabus also tells you more about the CAPA system and how it works.)

Reading for the first week:
Chapter 12.1 and 12.4 of Young and Freedman, Vol. 1, on Universal Gravitation
Chapter 21 of Young and Freedman, Vol. 2, on electric charge and electric fields.

Special notes:

• Please register your clicker soon - just go to our clicker info page.
• To log into CAPA, the homework system we're using this term, go to the CAPA link (always available to the left of this main page)
  A hard copy of YOUR set will be available in bins in the basement (look for Phys 1120 bins!) They are alphabetical by last name, please don't mess up the order for students coming after you. You need the 4 digit PIN number at the top of your personalized set (which changes every week!) to log in. If you lose it (or didn't pick up the hard copy), you can use "pin-getter" from the CAPA login link above, it works automatically and instantly.
  
• If you registered late (i.e. after the semester started) and find no CAPA set #1 in the bins, you might not be in the CAPA system yet. Click here, and fill in the late CAPA registration page . A human being will get you on the system soon (we go through this about twice a day, so be patient). NEXT week a set will be printed for you and appear in the bins, but THIS week you'll have to just use "pin-getter" to log on and see your set online.
• We also have an 1120 CULearn page. We'll post your grades there later this term. There is also a "threaded messages" list - you are welcome to ask each other questions about the course, even the homework there, and respond to one another. I will be monitoring this occasionally, so please use good judgement and common sense. If anyone uses this to copy answers, tell formulas, or otherwise sabotage the learning goals of the course, we'll just turn it off. But I think it's great for you to ask questions, discuss the problems, give hints, talk about where you went to get help or how you figured something out, and so on. Use it as a resource to collaborate (but not to cheat!) When in doubt about how far you can go in "giving help" to other students' questions: if you feel comfortable knowing that we'll be reading it, then it's probably fine!
