Shrutam is building free, screen-reader-friendly animated lessons for every TEKS standard. This page documents the standard text from the Texas Administrative Code so teachers, parents, and students can find exactly what students are expected to learn under TEKS 6.7(A).
Other expectations under 6.7
- TEKS 6.7(B) calculate the net force on an object in a horizontal or vertical direction using diagrams and determine if the forces are balanced or unbalanced; and
- TEKS 6.7(C) identify simultaneous force pairs that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction that result from the interactions between objects using Newton's Third Law of Motion.
