Learning Targets
- I can identify equal and unequal forces acting on an object. #dok1
- I can describe patterns of motion created by different forces. #dok1
- I can investigate the effect of equal and unequal forces on an object’s motion. #dok2
- I can explain how forces cause an object to start, stop, or change direction. #dok2
- I can explain how the transfer of energy happens when forces act on an object. #dok2
- I can analyze motion patterns to predict the effects of forces. #dok3
Big Ideas
- The motion of an object changes in predictable ways when equal or unequal forces act on it.
- Forces not only create changes in motion but can also transfer energy between objects.
Essential Questions
- How do equal and unequal forces affect the motion of an object?
- What patterns can we observe when forces act on an object?
- How does energy transfer relate to forces and motion?
- How can I investigate the effects of different forces on the movement of objects?
- What happens to an object’s motion when multiple forces act in different directions?
