The deadline for the second Home Assignment now has been extended to 8.04.2022 (April 8, 2022) at 14:00 CET. We have noticed some typos in the version available on Inspera. You can either download the new version from the assignment tab on Canvas or consider the older one with the following fix.
In problem 4, the right-hand side of the first equation (Faraday's law) should be "\nabla X (u X B)" instead of "\nabla X (\nabla X B).”
Another clarification regarding problem 3, the problem is two-part, and the second part of the problem is obligatory only for FYS9620.
