Office: Fretwell 335F, Phone: 867-2543, E-mail: ghetyei@uncc.edu
MW 3:35-4:35 pm, or by appointment.
Text: Vector Calculus by Jerrold E. Marsden and Anthony Tromba. ISBN-10: 1-4292-1508-9; ISBN-13: 978-1-4292-1508-4.
Prerequisite: MATH 2241 with a grade of C or above.
Topics: Geometry of Euclidean Space (Sections 1.1-1.4), Differentiation (Sections 2.1 and 2.3-2.6), Vector-Valued Functions (Sections 4.1-4.4), 5 Double and Triple Integrals (Sections 5.1-5.5), 6 The Change of Variables Formula and Applications of Integration (Sections 6.1-6.2), 7 Integrals over Paths and Surfaces (Sections 7.1-7.6), The Integral Theorems of Vector Analysis (Sections 8.1-8.4). Note that much of the material covered in Chapters 1,2,4,5 and 6 was already discussed in MATH 2241, we will try to go through these more quickly and then focus on Chapters 6 and 7.
Test Dates:
Test 1 Wednesday, February 13, 2013.
Test 2 Wednesday, March 27, 2013.
Final Exam Monday May 6 2013, 5:00-7:30 pm.
(Double-check in the UNCC Exam schedule !)
Homework: Homework will be assigned nearly every day, and will be usually collected on Mondays. I will make an effort to regularly post the homework on the webpage
http://www.math.uncc.edu/~ghetyei/courses/2242/hw.html
In case of discrepancy, what I said in class is "official". A random selection of the assigned exercises will be graded. Past due assignments will be counted at the rate of 90% of their value. No credit will be given for solutions submitted after we discussed them in class.
Evaluation: Grades will be based on: 23% for the homework, 22% for each of the tests, and 33% for the final.
Class meeting: MW 5:00 pm - 6:15 pm in Fretwell 305
