III. Learning Episodes

A. Priming
1. Daily Routine
 greet the students good afternoon
 checking of attendance
 inspection of cleanliness of the classroom
 enumerating the objectives for today’s lesson

2. Recall
 Activity 3
 Uniformly accelerated motion on horizontal dimension
 3. Motivation
The teacher will throw a ping pong ball and ask questions to the
students involving free fall.

B. Pre-Activity
The teacher will discuss the direction for the problem set.

C. Activity Proper
(see appendix)

D. Analysis
1. What is the velocity of the ball when it reached its highest
height or position?
2. What is the acceleration in free fall?

E. Abstraction

Kinematics Equation

Horizontal Dimension Vertical Dimension

𝑣𝑓 = 𝑣𝑖 + 𝑎𝑡 𝑣𝑓 = 𝑣𝑖 + 𝑔𝑡

𝑣𝑓 + 𝑣𝑖 𝑣𝑓 + 𝑣𝑖
𝑑=( )𝑡 𝑑=( )𝑡

1 1
𝑑 = 𝑣𝑖 𝑡 + 𝑎𝑡 2 𝑑 = 𝑣𝑖 𝑡 + 𝑔𝑡 2

𝑣𝑓2 = 𝑣𝑖2 + 2𝑎𝑑 𝑣𝑓2 = 𝑣𝑖2 + 2𝑔𝑑

Sample problems:
1. While the teacher is gone, Makoy went in front and jumped
from top of the table. If he free falls for 2.6 seconds
a. What will be his final velocity?

Given:
Vi = 0 m/s g = -9.8 m/s2 t = 2.6 s

Unknown:
Vf = ?

Solution:
Vf = Vi + gt
Vf = (0 m/s) + (9.8 m/s2) (2.6 s)
Vf = 25.48 m/s

b. How far did he fall?

Given:
Vi = 0 m/s g = -9.8 m/s2 t = 2.6 s

Unknown:
d=?
 Solution:
d = vit + ½ gt2
d = vit + ½ gt2
d = (0 m/s) + ½ (-9.8 m/s2) (2.6 s)2
d = -33.12 m

2. The Philippines tarsier is capable of jumping to height of 1.5

m in hunting for food. Determine the takeoff speed of the
tarsier.
Given:
d = 1.5 m g = -9.8 m/s2

Unknown:
vi = ?

Solution:

Note: at the highest point vf = 0 m/s

vf2 = vi2 + 2gd

(0 m/s)2 = vi2 + 2 (-9.8 m/s2) (1.5m)
0 m2/s2 = vi2 – 29.4 m2/s2
vi2 = 29.4 m2/s2
vi = 5.4 m/s

F. Evaluation

Direction: Choose the letter of the best answer.

1. In free fall, what is the only force acting on the body?

a. acceleration due to gravity
b. friction
c. air resistance
d. there is no force acting on the body
2. What is the value of acceleration due to gravity?
a. + 9.8 m/ss
b. + 9.8 m/s
c. - 9.8 m/ss
d. - 9.8 m/s
3. What is the velocity of an object at its highest point?
a. + 9.8 m/s
b. - 9.8 m/s
c. 0 m/s
d. Cannot be determined
4. What is the direction of the acceleration due to gravity?
a. upwards
b. downwards
c. to the left
d. to the right
5. What is the initial velocity of a free-falling body?
a. + 9.8 m/s
b. - 9.8 m/s
c. 0 m/s
d. Cannot be determined
 G. Agreement
The teacher will ask the students to read about projectile motion.

H. Closing
At some point of our lives, we may be in our lowest point and
want to give up. But like a free-falling body, that is just a start. There
will be something that will motivate you and keep you going until you
reach your goal.

I. Appendix

A. Problem Set

Objectives: students should be able to analyze and solve problems involving

uniform accelerated motion in vertical dimension (free fall).

Materials: calculator, paper and pen

Direction: Find what is being asked in the problem. Show complete solution.

1. Junvir was sitting confidently on the rails of their school building on

the 3rd floor when suddenly he went off balance and fell to ground.
The distance of the 3rd floor from the ground was 15m. Determine
the time Junvir took before he hits the ground.

Given: Find:

vi = 0 m/s d = -15 m a = -9.8 m/s2 t = ??

Solution:

d = vit + ½ at2
-15 m = (0 m/s)(t)+ ½ (-9.8 m/s2)(t)2
-15 m = 0+ (-4.9 m/s2)(t)2
(-15 m)/(-4.9 m/s2) = t2
75.5 s2 = t2

t = 3.06 s

2. Rex Things throws his mother's crystal vase vertically upwards with
an initial velocity of 26.2 m/s. Determine the height to which the
vase will rise above its initial height.

Given: Find:

a = -9.8 m/s2 vf = 0 m/s vi = 26.2 m/s d = ??

3.
Solution:
vf2 = vi2 + 2gd
(0 m/s)2 = (26.2 m/s)2 + 2(-9.8 m/s2)(d)
0 m2/s2 = 686.44 m2/s2 + (-19.6 m/s2) d
(-19.6 m/s2) d = 0 m2/s2 -686.44 m2/s2
(-19.6 m/s2) d = -686.44 m2/s2
 d = (-686.44 m2/s2)/ (-19.6 m/s2)
d = 35.0 m

3. An object dropped on planet Wakanda falls 64 meters in 4 seconds.

Find the acceleration due to gravity on planet Wakanda. Compare it
with Earth’s gravity.

Given: Find:

t=4s vi = 0 m/s d = 64 m a=?

4.
Solution:

d = vit + ½ at2
64 m = 0 m/s (4 s) + ½ a (4 s)2
64 m = 0 m/s + (8s2) a
64 m = (8s2) a
a = (64 m) / (8s2)
a = 8 m/s2
