SI
Indicators for this outcome
| (a) | Pose questions related to practical examples of the effects of forces on objects. (STSE) |
| (b) | Provide examples of how Newton's three laws of motion can describe the movement of objects in the real world. (STSE, K) |
| (c) | Discuss the importance of the concepts of inertia and inertial mass with respect to the development of Newton's laws of motion. (STSE, K) |
| (d) | Investigate the effect of changing the mass of an object and/or force applied to an object on the acceleration of that object. (STSE, S) |
| (e) | Solve problems involving force, mass and acceleration, using free-body diagrams and Newton's second law of motion $F = ma ↖ {→}$. (K, S) |
| (f) | Describe the effect of friction and air resistance, including terminal velocity, on objects in motion (e.g., rollercoasters, skydiving, snowboards, meteors entering Earth's atmosphere, inclined plane situations, rolling balls, spacecraft and satellite re-entry, aircraft, race cars and artillery).

Conceptual Physics(12th ed.)
This textbook, developed for post-secondary education, presents an approach to teaching physics that does not rely extensively on computation, but still requires mathematics. Hewitt engages readers with analogies and imagery from real-world situations that build a strong conceptual understanding of physical principles and scientific literacy. The resource provides support for the Heat and Properties of Waves outcomes in Physical Science 20, but does not provide support for the Foundations of Chemistry outcomes. For Physics 30, the content of this resource supports all of the curricular outcomes. The textbook does not address First Nations and Métis content, perspectives or ways of knowing.
