Ask questions that can be investigated within the scope of the classroom, outdoor environment, and museums and other public facilities with available resources and, when appropriate, frame a hypothesis based on observations and scientific principles. (PS2-3)

PS2.B: Types of Interactions:

Electric and magnetic (electromagnetic) forces can be attractive or repulsive, and their sizes depend on the magnitudes of the charges, currents, or magnetic strengths involves and on the distances between the interacting objects. (PS2-3)

Cause and Effect

Cause and effect relationships may be used to predict phenomena in natural or designed systems. (PS2-3)

Energy and Matter

Energy may take different forms (e.g. energy in fields, thermal energy, energy of motion). (PS3-5)
