Essential Questions:
Am I prepared for my Unit 3 test?
Unit Standards:
SPS9 Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to explain the properties of waves.
SPS9.a Analyze and interpret data to identify the relationships among wavelength, frequency, and energy in electromagnetic waves and amplitude and energy in mechanical waves.
SPS9.b Ask questions to compare and contrast the characteristics of electromagnetic and mechanical waves.
SPS9.c Develop models based on experimental evidence that illustrate the phenomena of reflection, refraction, interference, and diffraction.
SPS9.d Analyze and interpret data to explain how different media affect the speed of sound and light waves.
SPS9.e Develop and use models to explain the changes in sound waves associated with the Doppler Effect.
To Warm Up, you will complete the Unit 3 practice test. This will help you preview some questions similar to those on the test, and will allow you to discover where you may need additional studying time.
Accessing the Practice Test: Login to Illuminate using your Launchpad and complete the assessment titled: HCS-22-23_Physical Science_Unit 3
Once you submit the assessment you should be able to review your answers. Come to my office hours if you have questions about any of the items.
Revisit of key concepts in unit 3.
Your Unit 3 test is scheduled for Friday, September 30. You will be given a list of time slots during which you can have your test proctored by me via your Chromebook and GoGuardian. In closing, you will begin preparing for the Unit 3 test.
