In order to facilitate first-day PHYS 105 labs we have made
all first-week PHYS 105 labs an online process.  While you may
complete this lab any time before your second-week lab,
we encourage you to complete it as soon as possible, perhaps
even at your normal lab time.  In order to prepare for this
lab you should watch the online one-hour lecture at

http://youtu.be/PxWS_HnsPh4

or media directly from
www.physics.csbsju.edu/lab/

Most browsers prefer the .webm format
for safari: .webm media will download; launch VLC to play or all the .mp4 work directly 


and read and understand the first lab write up in the lab manual.
If the hardcopy lab manual is not available, the text
of Lab1 is available now online at

www.physics.csbsju.edu/lab/105Lab1.pdf

The graded work products for this lab are the online
lab quiz starting at:

www.physics.csbsju.edu/lab/105Lab1.html 

and hardcopy of the spreadsheet described in the lab manual
and turned in before the start of your second-week lab.

Again, we suggest you complete this lab in your normal
lab period.  The lab rooms (PENGEL 123+121) have 
computers that will be available for use (but bring your
own headphones/earbuds).  As the lecture for this lab is
rather large for home downloading, we suggest downloading and 
viewing it on-campus.  If you have questions about this lab
feel free to ask one of your physics instructors (lab or
lecture) or any physicist on the 100 floor of PEngel.
