|
2B
|
The student will develop an understanding of the structure of atoms, compounds, chemical reactions, and the interactions of energy and matter.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.1
|
The student will understand the relationships between force and motion.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.1.1
|
The student understands Newton's Laws and the variables of time, position, velocity, and acceleration can be used to describe the position and motion of particles.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.1.2
|
The student understands physicists use conservation laws to analyze the motion of objects.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.2
|
The student will understand the conservation of mass and energy, and the First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.2.1
|
The student understands matter has energy. Mass and energy can be interchanged. The total energy in the universe is constant, but the type of energy may vary.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.2.2
|
The student understands the first law of thermodynamics states the total internal energy of a substance (the sum of all the kinetic and potential energies of its constituent molecules) will change only if heat is exchanged with the environment or work is done on or by the substance. In any physical interaction, the total energy in the universe is conserved.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.2.3
|
The student understands the second law of thermodynamics that states the entropy of the universe is increasing.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.3
|
The student will understand the nature of the fundamental interactions of matter and energy.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.3.1
|
There are four fundamental forces in nature: strong nuclear force, weak nuclear force, electromagnetic force, and gravitational force.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.3.2
|
The student understands waves have energy and can transfer energy when they interact with matter.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.3.3
|
The student understand interference - how waves interact with other waves.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.3.4
|
The student will understand the principles of reflection and refraction.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.3.5
|
The student understands electromagnetic waves result when a charged particle is accelerated or decelerated.
|
|
|
|
|
2B.3.6
|
The student understands basic electrostatics and circuits.
