4-PS4-1

From NY Science Standards Wiki

Develop a model of waves to describe patterns in terms of amplitude and wavelength and that waves can cause objects to move.

Clarification statement: Examples of models could include diagrams, analogies, and physical models using wire to illustrate wavelength and amplitude of waves.

Assessment boundary: Assessment does not include interference effects, electromagnetic waves, non- periodic waves, or quantitative models of amplitude and wavelength.
