CPS mode and some exercises I like from chapters 4 and 5

Our midterm exam on Wednesday will cover topics from chapters 2-4 and as much of chapter 5 as we cover by end of class Monday.

We will also have a short in-class review session in the last 20 minutes of class, using CPS. It will be in SMA mode, "student managed assessment," which means you will have a handout of a dozen review questions to work on, and you type in your answers at your own pace. The clicker will tell you which question you are on.

We will use SMA on the midterm exams, so be sure to bring in your clicker on Wednesday, too.

Here is a list of exercises and examples I like in the textbook and the problem-solving manual (PSM).

1. Chapter 4
   
   
   
   1. PSM: 4.3.2, 4.2 and problem 16 on p. 39
   
   
   2. Textbook, p. 73: exercises 1-4, 7-12, 14-16.
   
   
   
   


2. Chapter 5
   
   
   
   1. PSM: geosynchronous orbit 5.5.1, and problem 4 on p. 45
   
   
   2. Textbook, pp. 91-92: exercises 3 and 4, 5 and 6, 7 and 8, 9 and 10, and two sweeeeeeet brainburners 11 and 20.
