The document provides topics for internal assessment assignments for students of the M.Sc. Physics (Previous) programme at Kuvempu University. It lists 3 topics each for Papers I through IV. For Paper I (Mathematical Methods and Classical Mechanics), the topics include finding the direction a projectile must be aimed to achieve maximum range when fired uphill, and evaluating a real integral using complex variable techniques. For Paper II (Quantum and Statistical Mechanics), the topics are finding the probability of finding a particle in an excited state box, constructing an orthogonal function, and relating entropy to ground state degeneracy. For Paper III (Solid State Physics), the topics are occupation probabilities, carrier
