IPC.5.C — Vertical Alignment
Vertical alignment shows student expectations in the same subject area at different grade levels that are related to or build upon one another.
explain how objects push on each other and may change shape when they touch or collide; and
IPC.5.C
apply the concepts of momentum and impulse to design, evaluate, and refine a device to minimize the net force on objects during collisions such as those that occur during vehicular accidents, sports activities, or the dropping of personal electronic devices;
calculate and describe the impulse and momentum of objects in physical systems such as automobile safety features, athletics, and rockets; and
analyze the conservation of momentum qualitatively in inelastic and elastic collisions in one dimension using models, diagrams, and simulations.
