Physics 2 for Scientists & Engineers: e-Gear

Below is a growing list of on-line course materials an links. Links marked with an asterisk (*) point to PDF files; to view them, you may need to obtain the proper plug-in for your web-browser and Reader software from Adobe. Sometimes, when viewing with the web browser plug-in (for the content to appear in a web browser window) and the download requires more time than permitted by the browser's timeout period, you'll get a blank page. In that case, download the PDF link to a file on your hard disk, and view it by double-cliking its icon or opening it from within Acrobat.
