MS-PS3-5

Energy Transfer to or from an Object

Next Generation Standards

MS-PS3-5 - Construct, use, and present arguments to support the claim that when the kinetic energy of an object changes, energy is transferred to or from the object.

Clarification Statement - Examples of empirical evidence used in arguments could include an inventory or other representation of the energy before and after the transfer in the form of temperature changes or motion of object.

Assessment Boundary - Assessment does not include calculations of energy.

7.MS-PS3-5 - Present evidence to support the claim that when the kinetic energy of an object changes, energy is transferred to or from the object.

Clarification Statement - Examples of empirical evidence could include an inventory or other representation of the energy before and after the transfer in the form of temperature changes or motion of an object.

Assessment Boundary - Calculations of energy are not expected in state assessment.
