Use mathematical representations to support the claim that the total momentum of a system of objects is conserved when there is no net force on the system.
Clarification statement: Emphasis is on the quantitative conservation of momentum in interactions and the qualitative meaning of this principle.
Assessment boundary: Assessment is limited to systems of two macroscopic bodies moving in one dimension.
Assessment
What assessment of HS-PS2-2 might look like on a NY state exam.
| Exam | Cluster | Question |
|---|---|---|
| June 2026 | From Astro Blaster to Supernova | Question 38 |
Performance Level Descriptions
PLDs communicate the knowledge and skills expected of students to demonstrate proficiency in each Learning Standard. NYS assessments classify student performance into one of five levels.
☐
Level 1: Given data and/or a model, use a mathematical representation for momentum to identify the mass, or the momentum (with or without direction), or the velocity/speed of an object.
☐
Level 2: Given data and/or a model, use a mathematical representation to determine the total momentum, with or without direction, of a system of objects before or after an interaction when there is no net force on the system.
☐
Level 3: Given data and/or a model, use a mathematical representation for the conservation of momentum to determine the mass and/or velocity of an object before or after an interaction between two objects when there is no net force on the system.
☐
Level 4: Use mathematical representations to support the claim that the total momentum of a system of objects is conserved when there is no net force on the system.
☐
Level 5: Collect and analyze data and use mathematical representations to support the claim that the total momentum of a system of objects is conserved when there is no net force on the system.

NGSS Dimensions
Performance expectation HS-PS2-2 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:
Science and Engineering Practices
- Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking
- Use mathematical representations of phenomena to describe explanations.
Disciplinary Core Ideas
- PS2.A: Forces and Motion
- Momentum is defined for a particular frame of reference; it is the mass times the velocity of the object.
- If a system interacts with objects outside itself, the total momentum of the system can change; however, any such change is balanced by changes in the momentum of objects outside the system.
Crosscutting Concepts
- Systems and System Models
- When investigating or describing a system, the boundaries and initial conditions of the system need to be defined.
