PHYS.7.E — 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.

Previous grade
S.2.7.A

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;
PHYS.7.D
calculate and describe the impulse and momentum of objects in physical systems such as automobile safety features, athletics, and rockets; and
PHYS.7.E
analyze the conservation of momentum qualitatively in inelastic and elastic collisions in one dimension using models, diagrams, and simulations.

PHYS.7.E — Breakout of skills

Breakouts are the component parts that make up a student expectation. A breakout shows a distinct concept a student should know or a distinct skill that a student should be able to demonstrate.

The student is expected to
analyze the conservation of momentum qualitatively
in elastic collisions in one dimension using
diagrams
models
simulations
in inelastic collisions in one dimension using
diagrams
models
simulations
