I. OBJECTIVES
Content Standard:
The learners demonstrate an understanding of Newton’s three laws of motion and uniform circular
motion
Performance Standards:
Learning Competencies
Investigate the relationship between the amount of force applied and the mass of the object to the amount of
change in the object’s motion;
Infer that when a body exerts a force on another, an equal amount of force is exerted back on it.
Demonstrate how a body responds to changes in motion;
Relate the laws of motion to bodies in uniform circular motion;
Infer that circular motion requires the application of constant force directed toward the center of the circle;
Identify situations in which work is done and in which no work is done;
Describe how work is related to power and energy;
Differentiate potential and kinetic energy;
Relate speed and position of object to the amount of energy possessed by a body.
Infer how the movement of particles of an object affects the speed of sound through it;
Investigates the effect of temperature to speed of sound through fair testing;
Demonstrate the existence of the color components of visible light using a prism or diffraction grating;
Explain the hierarchy of colors in relation to energy;
.Explain that red is the least bent and violet the most bent according to their wavelengths or frequencies;
Differentiate between heat and temperature at the molecular level;
Infer the relationship between current and charge;
Explain the advantages and disadvantages of series and parallel connections in homes;
Differentiate electrical power and electrical energy; and
Explain the functions of circuit breakers, fuses, earthing, double insulation, and other safety devices in the home.
II. SUBJECT MATTER
Students will understand that newton’s three law of motion, uniform circular motion and the application of
constant force can be used in developing a written plan of “Newton’s Olympics” by practicing road safety
at all times.
Essential Questions:

WHAT I THINK
WHAT I LEARNED
Process Questions:
1. What is POWER?
2. How can I apply power in my daily activities?

R=_____________________________________________
When you lift books at certain time, you are demonstrating power. Show some power with this activity.
Materials: books of the whole class, stopwatch
Procedure:
1. pile all the books that you can in one minute.
2. The students who can pile the most books in one minute will be considered the winner.
Guide question:
1. How were the concepts of work and energy shown in the activity?
2. What do you know about power before doing the activity?
3. Can you say that you felt powerful after the activity? Why or why not?
B. FIRM UP: DAY2
Activity 3: POWER
Objectives:
1. determine the power of a person going up to the stairs.
2. Identify the factors affecting the power of a body doig work.
NAME OF WEIGHT (N) HEIGHT OF TIME (S) WORK DONE ( POWER (W)
MEMBERS THE STAIRS J)
(M)
Guide questions:
1. Who among the members of the group did the most work?
2. Who among the members of the group generated the most power?
3. What are the factors that affect power/ how is work related to power in this activity?
4. How do you relate the results of the activity to real life situation?
C. DEEPEN: DAY 3
Materials: weighing scale, measuring tape or meter stick, flight of stairs (10-20steps), stopwatch
Procedure:
1. Work in group height of the staircase in meters.
2. Measure the height of the staircase in meters (FIGURE 2.1), and record it in table 2.1.
3. Weigh each person in the group, and record each person’s mass in table 2.1. Convert the mass into
newton’s by using the formula in step 5.
4. Place the stopwatch on zero, and record each person’ s time as he or she climbs from the bottom to the
top of the staircase.
5. Compute the other required data using the following equations:
a. Force =mass (9.8 N/ kg)
b. Work= force (distance)
work
c. Power=
time
Questions:
1. Fill up table 2.1
Table 2.1
Name Height or Mass (kg) Time (s) Weight Work Power
Distance (N) Done (watt)
(m) (Joule)
Example: 3 50 20 490 1470 73.5
Juan Cruz
2. In table 2.2, list the names of your group members according to increasing (from least to greatest) force,
and include their work done in the last column.

3. Look at table 2.2. What can you say about the relationship between force and work?
4. In table 2.3, list the names of your group members according to increasing (from lest to greatest) power
exerted. List down their force and speed as well.
1. From table 2.3, what can you infer about the relationship among force, speed, and power? Look at the
listed in step 5 of the procedure.
