Course Description: Math 152, Engineering Calculus II. Credit 4.
The course will
cover techniques of integration and applications of integration, such
as area, volume, arc length, work, hydrostatic force, center of mass and
first order differential equations. The course then covers sequences, series
and power series. Finally the course covers 3D vectors, dot and cross products
and lines and planes. The
prerequisite for this course is
Math 151 or
equivalent. Credit will not be given for both MATH 152 and 172.
The course meets
for three hours per week in lecture with your professor
and twice per week in recitation with your teaching
assistant (TA). One of your recitation meetings is designed to discuss
questions over
homework or lecture. The other recitation meets
in the computer laboratory using
the computer package Maple.
The goal of the computer laboratory portion of the course is to show
how problems that are too difficult to solve by
hand, can be solved with the help of the computer. If you wish to
purchase a personal copy of the software Maple (other than the ones on
the University computers, which you can use for the class of course),
you can visit the "Maple Adoption Program at Texas A&M University"
web-page at
http://calclab.math.tamu.edu/maple/adoption/ . There is currently
an offer for students at Texas A&M reducing the price of the software
to $75 instead of $140.
Texts: Calculus: Early Vectors, preliminary edition, by Stewart et al, published by Brooks/Cole. The computer laboratory will use Calclabs with Maple , also published by Brooks/Cole.
