Important Note: This will be the final problem set of the semester.
Because of the timing of the Thanksgiving break and the
third midterm exam on Friday, November 30, there did not seem to be
time to have you work on a problem set and get it back with comments
before the exam. But, there are topics on this problem
set that will also appear on the exam (the problems from sections 5.4 and 5.5).
I would strongly suggest working on those early (ideally, start on
them even before
Thanksgiving!) Then look at the review sheet for the exam.
That way you will have a ``leg up'' on this assignment too(!)

- Section 5.5/13, 14, 15, 19, 23, 25, 27;
- Section 5.6/3, 5, 11, 13, 19, 22 (Hint: choose a well-adapted coordinate system!)
- Section 6.2/1, 3, 5, 11.
