Indiana State Standards for Physics 1
that Relate to Ch 9 - Circular Motion
BHS -> Mr. Stanbrough -> Physics -> Physics 1 -> Mechanics -> Circular Motion -> Terms & Objectives -> this page
Background:
The Indiana
Academic Standards 2000 for Physics I contain two standards and
four supporting themes. The standards are:
- Standard 1: The Principles of Physics
- Standard 2: Historical Perspectives of Physics
The supporting themes are:
- The Nature of Science and Technology
- Scientific Thinking
- The Mathematical World
- Common Themes
The Standards that Relate to Chapter 9 - Circular Motion are:
- The Properties of Matter
- P.1.4 Employ correct units in describing common physical
quantities.
- The Relationships Between Motion and Force
- P.1.5 Use appropriate vector and scalar quantities to solve
kinematics and dynamics problems in one and two dimensions.
- P.1.6 Describe and measure motion in terms of position, time, and the derived quantities of velocity and acceleration.
- P.1.7 Use Newton’s Laws (e.g., F = ma) together with the kinematic equations to predict the motion of an object.
- P.1.8 Describe the nature of centripetal force and centripetal acceleration (including the formula
a = v2/r), and use these ideas to predict the motion of an object.
- P.1.9 Use the conservation of energy ... law to predict, both conceptually and quantitatively, the results of the interactions between objects.
- The Nature of Energy
- P.1.12 Use the law of conservation of energy to predict the outcome(s) of an energy transformation.
- Momentum and Energy
- P.1.16 Describe circumstances under which each conservation law may be used.
