NGSS HS-Physics in the Universe Course Summary
Physical processes govern everything in the Universe. Geoscientists require a strong background in the laws of physics in order to interpret processes that shape the Earth system [CCC-4], and physicists benefit from applying their models [SEP-2] in a range of contexts.
The sequence of Instructional Segments is based on a specific storyline about renewable energy [CCC-5]. Both physical science (PS) and ESS DCIs emphasize how discoveries in their discipline influence society, but the two differ in which aspects of society they focus upon. Physical science emphasizes society’s use of technology, while Earth and space science emphasizes humanity’s impact on natural systems [CCC-4] and the other way around. A major emphasis in the first several IS of this course is one societally relevant topic where these two disciplinary focuses intersect: electricity production. The main engineering design challenges relate to designing, building, evaluating, and refining systems [CCC-4] for electricity generation and considering the environmental impacts of each method on the different components of Earth’s system [CCC-4]. The theme is not all-encompassing, as many of the PEs pertain to core ideas that are disjointed from renewable energy [CCC-5].
Schedule of Instructional Segments
Instructional Segment 1: Forces and Motion
Instructional Segment 2: Forces at a Distance
Instructional Segment 3: Energy Conversion and Renewable Energy
HS-PS2-1: Analyze data to support the claim that Newton’s Second Law of Motion describes the mathematical relationship among the net force on a macroscopic object, its mass, and its acceleration. HS-PS2-2: Use mathematical representations to support the claim that the total momentum of a system of objects is conserved when there is no net force on the system. HS-PS2-3: Apply science and engineering ideas to design, evaluate, and refine a device that minimizes the force on a macroscopic object during a collision.
HS-PS2-4: Use mathematical representations of Newton’s Law of Gravitation and Coulomb’s Law to describe and predict the gravitational and electrostatic forces between objects. HS-PS2-6: Communicate scientific and technical information about why the molecular-level structure is important in the functioning of designed materials. HS-ESS1-4: Use mathematical or computational representations to predict the motion of orbiting objects in the solar system.
HS-PS2-5: Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence that an electrical current can produce a magnetic field and that a changing magnetic field can produce an electrical current. HS-PS3-1: Create a computational model to calculate the change in energy of one component in a system when the change in energy of the other component(s) and energy flows in and out of the system are known. HS-PS3-2: Develop and use models to illustrate that energy at the macroscopic scale can be accounted for as a combination of energy associated with the motion of particles (objects) and energy associated with the relative positions of particles (objects). HS-PS3-3: Design, build, and refine a device that works within given constraints to convert one form of energy into another form of energy. HS-PS3-5: Develop and use a model of two objects interacting through electrical or magnetic fields to illustrate the forces between objects and the changes in energy of the objects due to the interaction.
