|---|---|
HS-PS1-3—Plan and conduct an investigation to gather evidence to compare the structure of substances at the bulk scale to infer the strength of electrical forces between particles. |
|
HS-PS1-8—Develop models to illustrate the changes in the composition of the nucleus of the atom and the energy released during the process of fission, fusion, and radioactive decay. |
Niels Bohr |
HS-PS2-1—Analyze data to support the claim that Newton’s second law of motion describes the mathematical relationships among the net force on a macroscopic object, its mass, and its acceleration. |
|
HS-PS2-2—Use mathematical representations to support the claim that the total momentum of a system of objects is conserved when there is no net force on the system.. |
|
HS-PS2-4—Use mathematical representations of Newton’s Law of Gravitation and Coulomb’s Law to describe and predict the gravitational and electrostatic forces between objects. |
Michael Faraday |
HS-PS2-5—Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence that an electric current can produce a magnetic field and that a changing magnetic field can produce and electric current. |
Michael Faraday |
HS-PS2-6—Communicate scientific and technical information about why the molecular-level stricture is important in the functioning of designed materials. |
|
HS-PS3-1—Create a computational model to calculate the change in the energy of one component in a system when the change in energy of the other component(s) and energy flows in and out of the system are known. |
Rudolf Clausius |
HS-PS3-2—Develop and use models to illustrate that energy at the macroscopic scale can be accounted for as either motions of particles or energy stored fields. |
Rudolf Clausius |
HS-PS3-3—Design, build, and refine a device that works within given constraints to convert one form of energy into another form of energy. |
Rudolf Clausius |
HS-PS3-5—Develop and use a model of two objects interacting through electric or magnetic fields to illustrate the forces between objects and the changes in energy of the objects due to the interactions. |
Robert Hooke |
HS-PS4-1—Use mathematical representations to support a claim regarding relationships among frequency, wavelength, and speed of waves traveling in various media. |
Niels Bohr |
HS-PS4-3—Evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning behind the idea that electromagnetic radiation can be described either by a wave model or a particle model, and that for some situations one model is more useful than the other. |
|
HS-PS4-4—Evaluate the validity and reliability of claims in published materials of the effects that different frequencies of electromagnetic radiation have when absorbed by matter. |
Niels Bohr |
| HS-PS4-5—Communicatio technical information about how some technological devices use the principles of wave behavior and wave interactions with matter to transmit and capture information and energy. | Michael Faraday |
