PS+5+-+Forces+and+Motion


 * ====Standard PS-5:==== || ====[|The student will demonstrate an understanding of the nature of forces and motion.]==== ||
 * Indicators:**
 * || PS-5.1 || [|Explain the relationship among distance, time, direction, and the velocity of an object.] ||
 * || PS-5.2 || [|Use the formula v = d/t to solve problems related to average speed or velocity.] ||
 * || PS-5.3 || [|Explain how changes in velocity and time affect the acceleration of an object.] ||
 * || PS-5.4 || [|Use the formula a = (vf-vi)/t to determine the acceleration of an object.] ||
 * || PS-5.5 || [|Explain how acceleration due to gravity affects the velocity of an object as it falls.] ||
 * || PS-5.6 || [|Represent the linear motion of objects on distance-time graphs.] ||
 * || PS-5.7 || [|Explain the motion of objects on the basis of Newton's three laws of motion: inertia; the relationship among force, mass, and acceleration; and action and reaction forces.] ||
 * || PS-5.8 || [|Use the formula F = ma to solve problems related to force.] ||
 * || PS-5.9 || [|Explain the relationship between mass and weight by using the formula FW = mag.] ||
 * || PS-5.10 || [|Explain how the gravitational force between two objects is affected by the mass of each object and the distance between them.] ||
 * || PS-5.10 || [|Explain how the gravitational force between two objects is affected by the mass of each object and the distance between them.] ||
