Notice the SV8 problem numbers in the WebAssign HW assignments

This may be helpful to all of you for the WebAssign HW. I think that most of you refer to the WebAssign problem numbers (1,2,...,12) when doing the weekly assignments. You should also pay attention to the information at the right-hand side of the "blue bar" for each HW problem. For example, for the Chap 19 HW, it will say SerCP8 19.P.0xy, where xy is a two-digit number giving the problem number at the end of, in this case, Chapter 19 (of Serway and Vuille, Classical Physics, 8th edition). It will be helpful in many of the problems to look at what's in the book, not just what's on the WebAssign HW "pages" you view on the computer screen. Reason: there may be (a) figures(s) in the book, near the text of the problem, that will be useful to you for solving the problem. A case in point is Chap. 19, Problem 38 (which is the WebAssign #8 for Ch. 19 HW). To understand the geometry/layout of the "mass spectrometer" mentioned in the problem, look at the right-hand side of Fig. 19.36. This is what's envisioned for Problem 38. In this case, even more useful is Example 19.6 on p. 641 of SV8. Fig. 19.22 shows the pictorial layout of the mass spectrometer, and the example problem is very similar to Problem 38.
