Electromagnetism, Induction, and Relay Control Circuits

Classify substances particulate-by-particulate and apply experimental techniques to separate mixtures and purify salts.

Identify indicators of chemical change, write balanced chemical equations, and generate and test common gases.

Prepare concentration-specific solutions, measure pH, and evaluate the relative reactivity of metals.

Analyze macroscopic and particulate matter properties including mass, density, electrostatic interactions, and water's unique behavior.

Apply Newton's three laws of motion to multi-force interactions, engineering restraints, sports, and rocketry.

Investigate fluid pressure, buoyant force, lever equilibrium, and mechanical efficiency in simple and compound machines.

Analyze thermal energy transfer mechanisms, internal energy changes, and thermodynamic cycles in heat engines.

Construct and analyze series and parallel direct-current circuits, applying Ohm's law and measuring electrical power.

Build electromagnets, demonstrate electromagnetic induction, and engineer automated relay control circuits.

Analyze wave properties, acoustic resonance, optical reflection and refraction, lens imaging, and fiber optic communication.
