Week 25 Problem Sets: EM#14, QM#11

Problem Sets to be completed in your corresponding PSNs by noon Sun. May 7.

  • EM PS#14: Griffiths: 9.20, 9.21, 9.22, 9.23 || 9.27(b), 9.29, 9.31, 9.32 || 10.2, 10.4, 10.6, 10.7
  • QM PS#11: Townsend: 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.10, 9.13, 9.14, 9.23. Notes: 9.5 offers an opportunity to review CM material; 9.13 offers a review opportunity for ch. 3 material; 9.23 refers to the approach outlined in section 9.9 but I think you can use the hints while following the approach of section 9.6.

QM#9, QM#10 Problem Set Collaborative Solutions with notes

  • I’ve added notes to your Collaborative Problem Set Solutions for QM PS#9 and QM PS#10; please recall that you need to be logged in to access these.
  • Please compare the solutions in your Problem Set Notebook to these solutions, updating or correcting as you need to. If you disagree or would like further clarification, please send me an email.
  • I’ll do a spot check of your QM PSN for QM PS#7 – PS#10, so please bring with you and leave on the front table in the CAL.
