• Levels 9–10 Science as a human endeavour: Advances in scientific understanding often rely on developments in technology and technological advances are often linked to scientific discoveries (VCSSU115)
• Levels 9–10 Science as a human endeavour: The values and needs of contemporary society can influence the focus of scientific research (VCSSU116)
• Levels 9–10 Chemical sciences (incidental): All matter is made of atoms which are composed of protons, neutrons and electrons; natural radioactivity arises from the decay of nuclei in atoms (VCSSU122)
• Levels 9–10 Physical sciences (incidental): The interaction of magnets can be explained by a field model; magnets are used in the generation of electricity and the operation of motors (VCSSU131)
