It is helpful to relate each topic we teach to the 7 Big Ideas. Dolores Gende was generous enough to share a modified arrangement of the frameworks. The modified frameworks arrange the Learning Objectives by physics topic and list the big idea and science practice associated with each learning objective; they also list the corresponding chapters in many widely used and recommended textbooks.

It can be helpful to think of the LO being tested by the science practice, in the context of the Essential Knowledge statements and Big Ideas. Physics Topics Based Framework in HTML format. Links to GoogleDocs: Correlations to commonly recommended texts (Knight, Ektina, Giancoli) Big Ideas Big Idea 1: Objects and systems have properties such as mass and charge. Big Idea 2: Fields existing in space can be used to explain interactions. Big Idea 3: The interactions of an object with other objects can be described by forces.

Adam, don't hold your breath. - Wired Science. In a recent episode of MythBusters, Adam and Jamie revisited the ‘escape from an underwater car myth’. I have to say, this one was quite exciting. They put Adam in a car (with a safety diver) and dumped it in a lake. There were cables to prevent the car from going deeper than 15 feet, but this was still a rather scary myth. I have to say that I consider myself to be fairly comfortable in underwater situations, but I was nervous for Adam in this case. The first shot they showed of Adam escaping the car looked fine. So, why is there is no breath holding rule in scuba diving?

As you go deeper in water (or even in the atmosphere), the pressure of that fluid (or gas) increases. If this block of water is at rest and stays at rest, then the net force on it must be the zero vector. The force from the water pushing down on the top must be less than the force from the water pushing up. If this is an actual rectangular cubic chunk of water, then the top has the same area as the bottom. Contents.
