The following notes cover the entire Physics 30 curriculum (2007 version). I don’t intend that my students use these notes as an excuse to skip class… in fact I’ve put them here for the exact opposite reason. If you already have these notes when you come to class, you’ll find it easier to follow my explanations as I go through them. You are not required to access these notes… you are not missing anything if you completely ignore this web site. 

All of the chapters listed here are based on the order of the Pearson Physics textbook. At the bottom of each page you will find a note telling you what section from the text book the notes correspond to.

You will need a program that can read "pdf" files, such as Adobe Acrobat Reader, to view the files on this page. This ability is built in to Linux computers, and most Windows and Mac computers already have Acrobat Reader installed. Please download and install Acrobat Reader (100% free & safe program) on your computer by clicking on the link below if you have problems reading the notes.
