Notes Concerning Written Assignments:
All assignments are to be placed in the assignment drop-off box labeled for your specific EngG 130
LAB section.
Express your answers to 3 sig. figs. where appropriate
These drop-off boxes are located on the second floor in the NREF building near the main staircase.
All assignments must be handed in before 3 PM on the due dates specified in the table above. Late
assignments are not accepted and will receive a grade of zero.
All work submitted, including assignments, must be your own. See Code of Student Behaviour in the
University Calendar.
All assignments must be neat and hand written on Engineering Paper; use pencil; staple all
pages and use the assignment solution format provided.
