The final exam will be held on Thursday May 11th: 9:45-11:45 a.m. Bring a single sheet of notebook paper with useful formulae and a calculator. The exam will have 8 problems of which 2 will be short answer conceptual questions. The questions will emphasize fundamental aspects of the material covered. For example, the orbital dynamics problem will just require use of conservation laws. The best way to prepare is to review old exams, homework problems and examples in the text.
