Assignments:Assignments must be handed in on time. They should be handed in via email to mbreinig@utk.edu or handed to the instructor at the end of a class period. The format of the assignments should be Microsoft Word, Adobe PDF, or legibly handwritten. Most important hint for solving problems successfully: Read the question!Make sure you fully understand the scope of the problem and the conditions imposed. Explore if approximations are reasonable or even required by the wording of the problem.
