| The student understands and uses
scientific concepts and principles. |
Measure properties and characteristics
- Use appropriate tools, units, and procedures to obtain
accurate quantitative information related to physical and chemical properties
such as time, size, distance, temperature, light, acidity, mass, volume,
etc.
- Make measurements of objects or events that are not
directly accessible by using specialized measuring instruments and measuring
techniques
- Describe the motion forward and backward along a line
using position, velocity, and acceleration
- Understand and demonstrate how an object changes speed
and/or direction when an unbalanced force is applied
- Understand that motion along a curve at constant speed
requires an unbalanced force
|
- measuring thrust w/ digital balance
- measuring RPM using strobe light
- testing car's speed and acceleration
|
| The student applies science knowledge
and skills to solve problems or meet challenges. |
Evaluate solutions and consequences
- Using criteria for a suitable solution, compare and
evaluate solutions and consequences
- Using the evaluation results, determine which solution
is best and predict the consequences of its implementation
|
- evaluating propeller results
