OBJECTIVES
 Develop mathematical models from acceleration and
force data gathered
 Draw accurate force diagrams
 Distinguish between force and net force
 Differentiate scalars and vectors and give common
examples
 Explain how the law of inertia applies to objects in
motion.
 State the relationship between acceleration, net force,
and mass.
 Describe the factors that affect the frictional force
between surfaces.
 Define force as part of an interaction.
 Explain the results of force pair interaction
 Describe how scientific inferences are drawn from
scientific observations
 Discuss the role consensus plays in the historical
development of a theory
 Recognize the role of creativity in constructing scientific
questions, methods and explanations
 Compare the magnitude and range of the four
fundamental forces (gravitational, electromagnetic,
weak nuclear, strong nuclear).
 Recognize that Newton’s Laws are a limiting case of
Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity at speeds that
are much smaller than the speed of light.
