Uniform Accelerated Motion: Horizontal Dimension
Background Information for the Learners

Uniformly accelerated motion, or constant acceleration, is motion that has a constant
and unchanging velocity. Uniformly accelerated motion may or may not include a difference
in an object's speed.
The acceleration of an object means that there is a net force in the direction of that
object's acceleration. In addition the object sometimes, but not always, has a change in speed.
An object that falls in a vacuum under gravity's pull, for instance, is said to have a uniform
acceleration and a change in speed. In contrast, a planet that orbits the sun in a circular path
with no change in speed still has uniform acceleration but without an accompanying change in
speed.
Key Concepts:
✓ Under special circumstances, we can use a series of three equations to describe or predict
movement Where:
vf = vi + at vf - final velocity
vi - initial velocity
d = vi t + 1/2at2 a - acceleration
vf 2 = vi 2 + 2ad t - time
d - distance
✓ Most often, these equations are used to describe either horizontal or vertical motion
✓ Acceleration must be constant1
Uniformly Accelerated Motion: Horizontal Dimension
If a body maintains a constant change in its velocity in a given time interval along straight
line, then the body is said to have a uniform acceleration.

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Figure 1. An airplane preparing for takeoff
The change in an airplane’s position for each time interval is increasing as shown in
Figure 1, thus, it is moving faster and faster. This means that the plane is accelerating. Try the
next activity to further understand acceleration.
Remember:
Now you will use basic equations to derive formula use in Uniform Accelerated
Motion (UAM). Using the following equations on velocity, average velocity, and acceleration,
you can derive other equations.
where: v = velocity
Equation A 𝑑
v= vf = final velocity
𝑡
vi = initial velocity
Equation B Vave = average velocity
𝑣𝑓−𝑣𝑖
vave = d = displacement
2
t = time
Equation C 𝑣𝑓−𝑣𝑖
a= a = acceleration
𝑡
To find out how displacement changes with time when an object is uniformly
accelerated, rearrange equation A to arrive at d = vt. Since the velocity of the object changes
when it is uniformly accelerating, we use the average velocity to determine displacement, so
substituting v by Vave in equation B. you will get:
d =vt
Equation D
d =(vf-vi/2)t
Rearrange equation C to arrive at vf =vi +at and substituting the vf in equation D you will get
d = (vf+vi/2) t
d= (vi+at) vi/2 t
Combining vi, you will arrive at
d= (2vi + at/2) t
Distributing t will give you
d = 2vit + at2/2
Simplifying further will give you
d = vit +at2/2

Activity 2: “Ride a Bike”

Q1. In this problem the initial velocity u = 5 m/s and the final velocity v = 20 m/s. The
acceleration a of the bicycle is the rate of change of the velocity and is given as follows
20 m/s - 5 m/s
v-u
a= = 10 seconds
t
= 1.5 m/s2
Q2. There are two ways to find the distance covered by the bicycle in t = 10 seconds.
a) x = (1/2)(v + u) t = 0.5 (20 + 5) 10 = 125 m
b) x = (1/2) a t2 + u t = 0.5 * 1.5 * 100 + 5 * 10 = 125 m
Activity1: “Runaway”
Q1. The car has an initial velocity of 20 km/h, therefore the initial speed u = 20 km/h.
Nothing is said about the initial position and we therefore assume it is equal to 0. Hence the
position x is given by the equation
x = (1/2) a t 2 + u t
where a is the acceleration (=8 m/s2) and t is period of time between initial and final
positions and u is the initial velocity.
Since the time is given in seconds, we need to convert 20 km/h into m/s as
follows:
20 * 1km x 1000 m x 1 hour____

u = 20 km/h = 1 hour 1 km 3600 seconds
= 5.6 m/s
We now have
x = (1/2) (8) 102 + 5.6*10 = 456 m
Q2. The velocity v of the car at the end of the 10 seconds is given by
v = a t = 8 * 10 = 80 m/s

Activity 3: “It’s a Choo Choo Train”

Q1.We are given the initial velocity u = 40 m/s, the final velocity v = 0 (train stops) and the
distance. Hence the formula that relates these 3 quantities and the acceleration is given by
v2 = u 2 + 2 a x
02 = 402 + 2 a (100)
Solve for the acceleration a
a = -1600 / 200 = - 8 m/s2
Q2. There are two ways to find the time:

a) Use: x = (1/2)(v + u) t
100 = 0.5(0 + 40) t
Solve for t: t = 5 seconds.
b) Use x = (1/2) a t2 + ut
100 = 0.5 ( - 8) t2 + 40t
4 t2 - 40 t + 100 = 0
4 (t2 - 10 t + 25) = 0
4(t - 5)2 = 0
t = 5 seconds.

Uniform Accelerated Motion: Vertical Dimension
Background Information for the Learners

You learned in your Grade 8 that the pull of gravity acts on all objects. So on Earth,
when you throw something up, it will go down. Things thrown upward always fall at a constant
acceleration which has a magnitude of 9.8 m/s2. This means that the velocity of an object in
free fall changes by 9.8 m/s every second of fall.
Consider a stone dropped from the cliff as shown in Figure 2. For equal time interval,
the distance travelled increases quadratically.
Figure 2. Motion of the stone dropped from the hill and motion of
the stone thrown vertically upward
Another example of free-fall is a body thrown upward. Consider figure on the right
where a ball is thrown upward. As the ball goes up it decelerates with a magnitude of 9.8 m/s2
until it stops momentarily and changes direction. That means it reaches its maximum height
before it starts to fall. Using equation F, you will also find that when the ball falls back to the
point where it was thrown, its speed will be equal to the speed at which it was thrown.
Key Concepts:

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Note that the magnitude of the two velocities are equal, but they have opposite
directions- velocity is upward when it was thrown, but downward when it returns.
Do the next activities to further see the behavior of falling objects.

Activity 3: “You Raise Me Up”
Q1. In this problem the rock has an initial velocity u. When the rock reaches a height of 10
m, it returns down to earth and the velocity v = 0 when x = 10 meters. Hence
v = -9.8 t + u
0 = -9.8 t + u
u = 9.8 t
x = (1/2)(u + v) t
10 = 0.5 (9.8 t + 0) t
= 4.9 t2
Solve for t: t = 1.42 seconds

Q1. a) a rock was dropped down the well and is uniformly accelerated downward due to
gravity. If h is the height of the well and t is the time taken by the rock to reach the bottom
of the well, then we have h = (1/2)(9.8) t 2
b) After the splash, the sound travels up the well at a constant speed of 340 m/s. Again the
same height h of the well is given by h = 340 *(8 - t) : 8 - t is the time taken for the sound to
travel from bottom to top where the sound is heard.
The above equations give:
(1/2)(9.8) t2 = 340 *(8 - t)
4.9 t2 + 340 t - 2720 = 0
Solve for t, two solutions:
t = 7.24 s and the second solution is negative and is not valid.
The height h of the well is calculated using one of the above equations:
h = 340 *(8 - t) = 340 *(8 - 7.24) = 257 meters (approximated to the the nearest meter)
Activity 1: “Drop Me”
Guide Questions:
Q1. Consider that the direction from ground up is the positive direction of the falling object. Given
the initial (-20 m/s) and final velocities (-40 m/s); the minus sign was added to take into account the
fact that the falling object is moving in the negative direction. We know the gravitational acceleration
(g = - 9.8 m/s2) acting on the falling object and we are asked to find the height of the building. If we
consider the position of the object as being x (with x = 0 on the ground), then we may use the equation
relating the initial and final velocities u and v, the acceleration a and the initial (x 0 which the height
of the building) and final (x, on the ground) positions as follows:
v2 = u2 + 2 a (x - x0)
(-40 m/s)2 = (-20 m/s)2 + 2 (-9.8 m/s0) (0 - x0)
Solve the above for x0
x0 = 1200 / 19.6 = 61.2 m
Q2. x - x0 = (1/2)(u + v)t
-61.2 = 0.5(-20 - 40)t
t = 61.2 / 30 = 2.04 s

Projectile Motion
Background Information for Learners (BIL)

One type of projectile motion is the movement of a body that is launched or released at
a certain angle. A body or an object that undergoes projectile motion is called a projectile. A
hopping frog and a kicked soccer ball are examples of projectiles that are launched at an angle.
They rise and then fall curving downward along a parabolic path. The path that the projectile
follows is called the trajectory. The peak of the trajectory is the highest point that the
projectile could reach during its motion. The horizontal distance that the projectile covers is
called its range (R), while the vertical distance, that is, the distance from where it was launched
to the highest point of its path (peak) is its maximum height (H). The angle of launch or angle
of release (ϴ) is the angle that is formed when the projectile is fired, launched or released.
Under ideal conditions, an object undergoing projectile motion is affected only by gravity (as
a projectile moves, air resistance is assumed to have a negligible or no effect upon the motion).
An angle-launched projectile has both a horizontal and vertical component to its initial
velocity. Initial velocity is the velocity at which motion starts. The magnitudes of the horizontal
and vertical components of the initial velocity can be calculated from the knowledge of the
initial velocity (vi) and the angle of launch (ϴ) using trigonometric functions. The equations
are:
Formula: where:
vix = vi cosϴ vix – horizontal component of the initial velocity
viy = vi sinϴ viy – vertical component of the initial velocity
vi – initial velocity
ϴ - angle of launch
viy vi H
ϴ
vix
R
The height and the range of a projectile depend on its initial velocity and angle of
launch.

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Below are formulas that could be used to solve problems involving projectiles that are
launched at a certain angle.
For maximum height reached:

H = viy2 where H – maximum height
2g viy - vertical component of the initial velocity
g -acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8m/s2
For the total time of flight:

t = 2viy where t – total time
g viy – vertical component of the initial velocity
g - acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8m/s2
For the horizontal distance or range:

R = vix t where R – range
vix – horizontal component of the velocity
t – total time
EXAMPLE
1. A football player kicks a football at an angle of 40o from the ground with an initial velocity
of 15 m/s. Ignoring air resistance, calculate:
a. the maximum height that the football can reach (H)
b. the total time of its flight (t)
c. its horizontal distance (R)

ACTIVITY 4
“Let’s Compute!”
Directions: Solve the following problems using the formulas given in the background of
information (BIL). Show complete solution. Number 1 is given as an example.
1. A grasshopper jumps at an angle 50o from the ground with an initial velocity of 5m/s. If air
resistance is absent, find the following:
a. Maximum height reached (H)
b. Time of flight (t)
c. The horizontal distance (R)
Vi =15m/s H
50o
R
(The following are the computed sin ϴ and cos ϴ, just in case you do not have a scientific
calculator.)
sin ϴ = 0.766 cos ϴ = 0.643
Given: vi = 5 m/s unknown: vix = ? viy=?

ϴ = 50o H=? t=? R=?
g = 9.8 m/s2
Solution:
vix = vi cos ϴ
= (5m/s) (0.643)
= 3.22 m/s
viy = vi sin ϴ
= (5m/s) (0.766)
= 3.83 m/s
a. H = viy2
2g
= (3.83 m/s)2
2 ( 9.8 m/s2)
= 14.67 m2/s2
19.6 m/s2
= 0.75 m

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
b. t = 2viy
g
= 2 (3.83 m/s)
9.8 m/s2
= 7.66 m/s
9.8 m/s2
= 0.78 s
c. R = vix t
= (3.22 m/s) (.78s)
= 2.51 m
Now, answer problems 2 and 3.

At angle 75o,
R = 1.29 m
I will succeed in going to the other side of the stream when I jump at launch angle of 40 o
because at angle 40o, I will land 2.53 m from the starting point. The landing point is .53 m
from the edge of the stream. If I launch at 75o, I will definitely fall into the stream because
with this angle, I could only reach a distance of 1.29 m from the starting point.
2. The range and height of a projectile depend upon the initial velocity and the angle at which
the angle is released or launched above the horizontal. The farthest distance (range) is reached
when the angle of launch is equal to 45o. If a projectile is launched at the same initial velocity
but 2 different angles, the projectile will land on the same range if the sum of the 2 angles is
90o. On the other hand, when the projectile is launched at the same initial velocity, the higher
maximum height is reached when the angle of launch is greater. When the angle of launch is
low, the projectile will reach low maximum height.

Relate impulse and momentum to collision of objects (e.g., vehicular collision)

Impulse and Momentum

Momentum is a measurement of mass in motion. Any object that is moving has
momentum. In physics, momentum of an object is equal to the mass times the velocity.
momentum = mass * velocity
Momentum is usually abbreviated using the letter "p" making the equation look like:
p=m*v
where p is the momentum, m is the mass, and v is the velocity.

“p” came from the Latin word "petere" which means "go towards".
Based from the equation, both the velocity of the object and the mass have an equal
impact on the amount of momentum. You have more momentum when you are running than
when you are walking. While, if a car and bicycle are traveling down the street at the same
velocity, the car will have more momentum.
Momentum is typically measured in kilograms times meters per second (kg m/s) or
newton-second (N s).
Because velocity is a vector, momentum is also a vector. This means that in addition to
the magnitude of momentum (which is given by p = m * v), momentum also has a direction.
The direction of momentum is shown by an arrow or vector.
SAMPLE PROBLEMS:
1. A 50 kilogram boy runs as fast as 4m/s to the north. What is his momentum?
given: m= 50 kg
v= 4 m/s, north
unknown: p
formula: p=m*v
solution: p=(50kg)* (4m/s, north)
answer: p= 200 kg m/s, north

When two objects bump into each other, this is called a collision. In physics, a collision
doesn't have to involve an accident (like two cars crashing into each other), but can be any
event where two or more moving objects exert forces on each other for a short period of time.
Examples:
• One ball striking another on a pool table

• A baseball bat hitting a ball
• Your fingers striking the key on the keyboard
In a collision, an object experiences a force for a specific amount of time that results in
a change in momentum. The result of the force acting for the given amount of time is that the
object's mass either speeds up or slows down (or changes direction). The impulse experienced
by the object equals the change in momentum of the object. In equation form, F • t = m • Δ v.
Impulse concepts are merely results of Newton's second law- law of acceleration.
Newton's second law (Fnet = m • a) stated that the acceleration of an object is directly
proportional to the net force acting upon the object and inversely proportional to the mass of
the object. When combined with the definition of acceleration (a = change in velocity / time),
the following equalities result.

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
F=m•a or F = m • ∆v / t
If both sides of the above equation are multiplied by the quantity t, a new
equation results.
F • t = m • ∆v
This equation represents one of two primary principles to be used in the analysis of
collisions during this unit. To truly understand the equation, it is important to understand its
meaning in words. In words, it could be said that the force times the time equals the mass times
the change in velocity. In physics, the quantity Force • time is known as impulse. And since
the quantity m•v is the momentum, the quantity m•Δv must be the change in momentum. The
equation really says that the
Impulse = Change in momentum
In a collision, objects experience an impulse; the impulse causes and is equal to the
change in momentum.
Types of Collision:
• An elastic collision is one in which no kinetic energy is lost.

• An inelastic collision is one in which some of the kinetic energy of the colliding
bodies is lost. This is because the energy is converted into another type of energy like
heat or sound.
There are numerous real-world applications of these phenomena. One example is the
use of air bags in automobiles. Air bags are used in automobiles because they are able to lessen
the effect of the force on an object involved in a collision. Air bags prolong the time required
to stop the momentum of the driver and passenger. When there is a car collision, the driver and
passenger tend to keep moving in according with Newton's first law or Law of Inertia. Their
motion brings them towards a windshield that results in a large force applied over a short time
in order to stop their momentum. If instead of hitting the windshield, the driver and passenger
hit an air bag, then the time duration of the impact is increased. When hitting an object with
something such as an air bag, time duration will be increased. Increasing the time will result in
a decrease in force.
Another example is in boxing. Fans of boxing frequently notice this same principle of
minimizing the effect of a force by extending the time of collision. When a boxer recognizes
that he will be hit in the head by his opponent, the boxer often relaxes his neck and allows his
head to move backwards upon impact. In the boxing world, this is known as riding the punch. A
boxer rides the punch in order to extend the time of impact of the glove with their head.
Extending the time results in decreasing the force and thus minimizing the effect of the force
in the collision. Merely increasing the collision time by a factor of ten would result in a tenfold
decrease in the force.

The Law of Conservation of Momentum

Newton’s law of inertia states that a heavier object is more difficult to move because it
has more inertia in it. It is more resistant to any force applied to it. The same is true with objects
moving at a faster velocity. A car running at 50kph is more difficult to stop than another car of
the same mass running at 30kph. This is because more force is needed to put the faster car to a
halt.
More inertia means more momentum. Therefore, a truck has more momentum than a
car if both are moving with the same speed; the faster car has more momentum than the slower
car.

Figure 1. A truck has more momentum than a car.
What is momentum? Momentum is a measurement of mass in motion. Any object that

is moving has momentum. In physics, momentum of an object is equal to the mass times the
velocity.
momentum = (mass) (velocity)
Momentum is usually abbreviated using the letter "p" making the equation look like:
p = (m) (v)
where p is the momentum, m is the mass, and v is the velocity.

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
From this equation you can see that both the velocity of the object and the mass have an
equal impact on the amount of momentum. You have more momentum when you are running
than when you are walking. By the same token, if a car and bicycle are traveling down the
street at the same velocity, the car will have more momentum.
Source: https://slideplayer.com/slide/13245389/
Figure 2. A car moving faster has more momentum than another car of the same mass.
How to Measure Momentum
Momentum is typically measured in kilograms times meters per second (kg*m/s) or

newton-second (N s).
Momentum is a Vector
Because velocity is a vector, momentum is also a vector. This means that in addition to the
magnitude of momentum (which is given by p = mv), momentum also has a direction. The
direction of momentum is shown by an arrow or vector.

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Figure 3. Sample computation of momentum.
Collisions
When two objects bump into each other, this is called a collision. In physics, a collision
doesn't have to involve an accident (like two cars crashing into each other), but can be any
event where two or more moving objects exert forces on each other for a short period of time.
Examples:
• One ball striking another on a pool table
• A baseball bat hitting a ball
• Your fingers striking the key on the keyboard
Collisions and the Conservation of Momentum
An important theory in physics is the law of momentum conservation. This law describes
what happens to momentum when two objects collide.
The law states that when two objects collide in a closed system, the total momentum of the
two objects before the collision is the same as the total momentum of the two objects after the
collision. The momentum of each object may change, but the total momentum must remain
the same.
Example:
If a red ball with a mass of 10 kg is traveling east at a speed of 5 m/s and collides with a
blue ball with a mass of 20 kg traveling west at a speed of 10 m/s, what is the result?
First we figure out the momentum of each ball before the collision:
Red ball = (10 kg ) (5 m/s) = 50 kg m/s east

Blue ball = (20 kg) (10 m/s) = 200 kg m/s west
The resulting momentum will be:
Both balls = 150 kg m/s west

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Note: An object standing still has a momentum of 0 kg m/s.
Conserving Momentum
Recall an experience when you bump into somebody. What happened? You collided
with another person’s body. In other words, you interacted with another body. Collisions
happen because objects interact with other objects. Cars collide in road accidents and soccer
players bump into each other during an intense soccer game. But what happens when bodies
collide? Does their individual momentum change? If so, what happens to them after they
collide?
Figure 4. Illustration of conservation of momentum.
Newton’s law of interaction tells us that interacting bodies exert forces on each other.
Such forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.
Take for example a collision between Car 1 and Car 2. Applying Newton’s third law,
you can say that Car 1 exerted a force on Car 2, the same way that Car 2 exerted a force on Car
1. These forces that acted on both cars are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. So F1
=F2.
Source: https://www.sophia.org/tutorials/the-law-of-conservation-of-momentum
Figure 5. Momentum is conserved in a car collision.

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
These forces act on both cars for a given period of time. In this case as with most car
crashes, forces act on the colliding cars only for a short period of time. However, time interval
can be long in some cases. But no matter how long or how short the time these forces are
applied, keep in mind that the time the forces is applied to Car 2 is equal to the time the force
is applied to Car 1. For example, if Car 1 touches Car 2 for 0.5 seconds, it follows that Car 2
touches Car 1 in exactly the same period of time (0.5 seconds). Thus, t1=t2.
Since the forces exerted on both cars are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction
and since the time intervals during which these two forces act are the same, the impulses
imparted by the cars to one another are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, too.
If the respective impulses received by the cars are equal but opposite in direction, then
their corresponding changes in momentum are also equal in magnitude but opposite in
direction.
Change in momentum (P1 ) = - change in momentum (P2)
∆P1= -∆𝑃2
If the system is composed of the two cars only, the total change in momentum of the
system is zero.
∆P1+∆𝑃2 =0
Since there is no change in momentum of the system, the momentum is conserved. In
physics, quantity is said to be conserved when it remains constant.
When you say that the total momentum of the two cars is conserved, you assumed that
there are no external forces acting on the cars are as consistent with Newton’s second law of
motion. What about the forces the cars exert on one another? We have defined the system as
one composed of the two cars. Therefore, the forces they exert on one another are internal
forces. Thus, if no external force is present, no change in the total momentum of the system is
possible. This is known as the law of conservation of momentum. The law states that:
In the absence of an external net force, the total momentum of a system remains
constant.
When bodies interact, their total momentum before the collision is equal to the total
momentum after the collision. In symbol,
P1 + P2 = P1´ + P2´
where P´ is the momentum of the body after collision.
Substituting p=mv, you have
m1v1 + m2v2 = m1v1´ + m2v2´
where mA is the mass of the first body; mB is the mass of the second body; vA is the velocity of
the first body before the collision; vB is the velocity of the second body before the collision; v´A
is the velocity of the first object after collision; and v´B is the velocity of the second object after
collision.
If in a collision, Car 1 lost 100 units of momentum, Car 2 should have gained 100 units
of the momentum Car 1 lost. Adding the momenta of both cars after the collision still yields
the same total momentum since momentum was only transferred to the other colliding body.
Therefore, momentum is not lost but conserved. In the collision of objects, the total momentum
of the system is always conserved- that is, the total momentum of colliding objects does not
change before, during and after the collision.

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Figure 6. Sample computation of conservation of momentum.
Sample problem:
A marble of mass m1=0.04 kg moving with the speed v1=2.0m/s strikes a second marble,
initially at rest, of mass m2 =0.04 kg. As a result of the collision, the first ball comes to rest and
the second ball moves in the opposite direction. What is the velocity of marble 2?
Given: m1 = 0.04 kg
m2 = 0.04 kg
v1 = 2.0 m/s (v for the speed and velocity)
v2 = 0
v1´=0
Find: v2´
Solution:
Total momentum before collision = total momentum after collision
P1 + P2 = P1´ + P2´
m1v1 + m2v2 = m1v1´ + m2v2´
(0.04 kg) (2.0 m/s) + (0.04 kg) (0) = (0.04 kg) (0) + (0.04 kg) v2´
0.08 kg.m/s + 0 = 0 + 0.04 kg (v2´)
v2´ = 2 m/s
Infer that the total momentum before and after collision is equal (Quarter 4, Week 3)

Conservation of Mechanical Energy
Energy is needed to perform work. An object that possesses mechanical energy is able to
do work. Mechanical energy is defined as the ability to do work. Work is done when a force
acts on an object will cause it to move, change its shape, displace or do something physical.
This force is caused by mechanical energy. There are two forms of Mechanical energy, the
kinetic energy and potential energy. Kinetic energy is an energy associated with motion. All
objects that are moving possess kinetic energy. The kinetic energy of an object is dependent on
its mass and the square of its speed. The faster the object, the greater its kinetic energy
therefore, an object with more energy can do greater amount of work. Some forms of kinetic
energy are sound, radiant, electrical, heat, and thermal energy. Sound energy is an energy
produced by vibration as they travel through a medium. Energy that travels in space in a form
of waves are called radiant energy. Electrical energy is caused by flow of electric charges. Heat
energy is an energy that flows from objects with higher temperature to object with lower
temperature. Heat transfer is due to the difference in temperature between objects, and the
movement of particles in a matter is called thermal energy. Heat is a form of thermal energy.
The second form of mechanical energy is the potential energy which is stored in an object due
to its position, location or condition. There are three forms of potential energy, the gravitational,
elastic and chemical. The Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) is associated to earth’s
gravitational pull from the ground. Some objects like springs and rubber bands are capable to
stretch and return to original form due to its Elastic Potential Energy (EPE). Chemical Potential
Energy (CPE) is an energy stored in an objects like the food you eat, or the fuel you use to cook
food or run vehicles.
The mechanical energy of an object can be the result of its motion and stored energy in its
position. The total amount of mechanical energy is merely the sum of kinetic energy and
potential energy. This sum is simply referred to as the Total Mechanical Energy (TME). In
equation form, TME = PE + KE. Potential and Kinetic Energy can be calculated using the
equations below. In Law of Conservation of Mechanical Energy, the PE and KE is inversely
proportional, meaning that as PE increases, KE decreases and as KE increases, the PE
decreases. This can be applied in a free fall object. For example, when the stone falls, its loses
gravitational potential energy while gaining kinetic energy since its speed increases. Neglecting
friction, the loss in stone’s gravitational potential energy is equal to the gain in kinetic energy.
Thus, the total mechanical energy of the stone at any point in its path while falling is constant.
Forms of Mechanical Energy Formula Where

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Potential Energy PE = mgh PE = Potential Energy

m = mass of object
g = acceleration due to gravity
(9.8m/s2) constant value
h = height or elevation difference
Kinetic Energy KE = ½ mv2 KE = Kinetic Energy
m = mass of object
v = velocity of object
Study very well the following sample problems.

Example #1
How much potential energy is gained by a 2-kg book when it is raised 1.5 m
above the table?
Take note that we are looking for the increase in gravitational potential energy with
reference to the table top.
Solution:
PE = mgh
= (2 kg) (9.8m/s2) (1.5m)
= 29.4 joules
The unit of gravitational potential energy is the same as the unit of work which is joule
(J).
Example #2
A 2kg baseball moves at speed of 5m/s. Find the amount of its kinetic energy.
Solution:
KE = ½ mv2
= ½ (2kg) (5m/s)2
= 25 joules
The unit of KE is
KE = ½ mv2
Joule = kg(m/s)2
= kg m2/s2 may also written as (kgm/s2) (m), or N.m
= N. m or joule (J)

❖ A 5 kg rock falls from the mountain at the height of 50m. Find for the PE, KE, and TME
where the stone is:
a. on the top of a mountain;
b. falls at 1second;
c. falls at 2 seconds; and
d. falls at 3 seconds
Solution for problem a:

PE= mgh KE = ½ mv 2
= 5kg (9.8m/s2) (50m)
= 2,450 J = ½ (5 kg) (0 m/s)2
=0
Solution for problem b:
PE= mgh KE = ½ mv 2
= 5kg (9.8m/s2) (45.1m)
= ½ (5 kg) (9.8 m/s)2
= 2,209.9 J
= 240.1 J
Note that the formula used in computing distance of a free fall is

d= ½ gt2. Getting the height obtained by KE is d= ½ gt 2
= ½ (9.8m/s) (1s)2
= 4.9 m
Subtracting the height of rock on the top of the mountain which is 50 m to 4.9 is
equal to 45.1m
The velocity can be calculated using this formula v=gt as you learned in uniformly

HEAT and WORK
Background Information for Learners
When heating a pot of tap water on a stove, it is observed that the water temperature
increases. In this situation, heat flows from hot burner to the cold water. When two objects at
different temperatures are put in contact, heat spontaneously flows from an object of high
temperature to the object of low temperature. The natural flow of heat is always in the direction
tending to equalize the temperature. If the two objects are kept in contact long enough for their
temperatures to become equal, the two bodies are said to be in thermal equilibrium, and there
is no further heat flow between them. Let us take for example, when you have a fever. You will
use fever thermometer in your armpit to monitor your temperature. Heat is flowing from your
armpit to the thermometer; when the temperature reading stops increasing, the thermometer is
then in equilibrium with your armpit, and they are at the same temperature. These are frequent
questions when studying heat and work:
Heat transfer may change one’s temperature or one’s phase. This change in
temperature, either a decrease or an increase means that there is an energy transfer in the form
of heat. On the other hand, phase change means that there is a change in body’s internal energy.
The concept of the conservation of energy states that: Energy cannot be created or
destroyed. The first law of thermodynamics is actually based on this concept. It states that: The
change in internal energy of a system equals the difference between the heat taken in by the
system and the work done by the system. Internal energy of a substance is the sum of molecular
kinetic energy (due to the random motion of the molecules), molecular potential energy (due
to forces that act between the atoms of a molecule and between the molecules), and other kinds
of molecular energy.
When heat flows in instances where the work done is negligible, the internal energy of
the hot substance decreases and the internal energy of the cold substance increases. While heat
may originate in the internal energy supply of a substance, it is not correct to say that a
substance contains heat. The substance has internal energy, not heat. The word “heat” is used
only when referring to the energy actually in transit from hot to cold.
The law is expressed as
ΔU = Q-W
where Q = the amount of heat flowing into a system during a given process
W = the net work done by the system
ΔU = the change in the system’s internal energy
This is derived from the conservation of energy. This also shows the relationship of
heat and work.
Q= W + ΔU

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Use Joule (J) as our SI unit for energy. The first law tells us that a system’s internal
energy can be changed by transferring energy by either work, heat or a combination of the two.
The increase in the internal energy of a system is equal to the amount of heat added to a system
minus the work done by the system. Adiabatic process is a process without gain or loss of heat.
Internal/ thermal energy is the sum of all kinetic and potential energies of the atoms/ molecules
in the system.
Sample problem:
If 150J of energy is added to a system when no external work was done, by how much will
the thermal energy of the system raised?
Given: Q= 150J
W= 0 Find: U
Solution: U= Q- W
= 150J- 0
= 150 J
Heat Pump
An object with a high temperature is said to be hot, and the word “hot” brings to mind
the word “heat.” Heat flows from a hotter object to a cooler object when the two objects are
placed in contact. It is for this reason that a pot of chocolate drink feels hot to the touch, while
the scoop of an ice cream feels cold. The temperature of hot chocolate is higher than the normal
body temperature of 37°C, while the temperature of an ice cream is lower than 37°C. When
you touch a cup of hot chocolate drink, heat flows the hotter cup into a cooler hand. When you
touch a cone of ice cream, heat again flows from hot to cold, in this case from the warmer hand
into a colder cone. The response of the nerves in the hand to the arrival or departure of heat
prompts the brain to identify the cup of chocolate drink as being hot and the cone of an ice
cream as being cold. How can we do the reverse? A heat pump is used to reverse the process.
It is a device that allows heat to transfer from a cold reservoir to a warmer one, which cannot
happen spontaneously, or on its own. Work is required for the heat to flow from a lower to a
higher temperature. This work is provided by the motor of a heat pump. Let us find out how
this process takes place. You have learned from activity 1 that nonspontaneous process needs
a heat pump in order to reverse the process. Mechanical work should be applied so that heat
could be transformed. .
Heat flows normally from higher temperature to lower temperature. It is a natural or
spontaneous process. It does not require any external energy to occur. When heat flows from
lower temperature to higher temperature, it needs mechanical energy to happen. It is called
non-spontaneous process. In so doing, work should be done. Mechanical energy is required for
this to happen. The Second Law of Thermodynamics is applied here. It states that Heat will
never of itself flow from a cold temperature to a hot temperature object. The work is provided
by the motor of the heat pump. Let us perform the following activity to find out how.

Heat, Work and Efficiency: Heat Engines
Background Information for the Learner (BIL)
When you rub your hands vigorously for few seconds what do they feel? Your hands
become warmer, right? When you hammer a nail, both tools become warmer. These are just
some of the evidences that heat and work are related.
Temperature change in an object indicates that there is a transfer of heat. When the
object’s temperature rises, the object gains heat. A decrease in temperature indicates that heat
is given off. The amount of heat transferred may be measured from the change in temperature
of the object. When temperature changes, this indicates an increase in the kinetic energy of
molecules.
We use heat in various activities. We use heat in cooking, burning, lighting, sterilizing
and many other task. In these activities heat is transformed.
Can mechanical energy be converted to thermal energy and vice versa? Yes, it can be
done by using heat engines. 80% of the world’s electricity if derived from heat sources and
almost all of the energy conversion processes used convert thermal energy into electrical
energy involve an intermediate step of converting the heat energy to mechanical energy in some
form of heat engines. To satisfy this need, a wide range of energy conversion systems has been
developed to optimize the conversion process to the available source.
Heat engine is a device that transforms thermal energy into mechanical energy. It
employs a range of methods to apply heat and to convert the pressure and volume changes into
mechanical motion. Gasoline and diesel engines often referred to as internal combustion
engines burn fuel inside the engine chamber. In steam engines, burning occurs outside the
engine. Whether combustion takes place inside or outside the engine, both types of heat engines
operate on the same principle. Hot gases are made to expand. Then the hot expanding gases
push against a moving part.
Internal Combustion Engines A gasoline engine is made up of several cylinders

connected to a crankshaft. (Figure 1). It consist of two valves (an inlet and an exhaust), a spark
plug, and a piston. A piston rod connects the piston and engine’s crankshaft. The gasoline
engine operates in cycles. Each cycle consist of four steps, commonly referred to as strokes.

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Figure 1. The four-stroke cycle of a gasoline engine, namely, (a) intake stroke, (b)
compression stroke, (c) power stroke, and (d) exhaust stroke
Source: Physics: Science and Technology Textbook for Fourth Year (2012)
In the intake stroke, the piston goes down and the inlet valve opens. Fuel vaporizes and
mixes with air in the carburetor. Then the mixture enters the engines cylinders through the inlet
valve. Afterwards, the inlet valve closes.
In the second stroke the piston moves up, compressing the mixture of air and fuel in the
cylinder to a small fraction of its original volume. An electric spark plug ignites the compressed
mixture. This step is called compression stroke. When the mixture ignites, it releases heat. This
greatly increases the gas temperature, Gas molecules the move more rapidly. The gas expands,
pushing the piston down. This is the third step called the power stroke. The exhaust valve then
opens.
The last step is the exhaust stroke. Burned gas rushes through the valve, moving the
piston up. The exhaust valve then closes. The piston moves down, ready for another cycle.
Steam Engines
Piston type engines operate on the same principle as the internal combustion engine.
The piston move to and fro due to the compression and expansion of gases. Instead of fuel gas
or vapor, however, this engine uses superheated steam (high-temperature steam). Burning of
fuels occurs outside the engine chamber where the steam is produced. Steam engines have only
two strokes instead of four. (Figure 2)

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Figure 2. Two-stroke piston-type steam engine: (a) stroke 1 and (b) stroke 2
Source: Physics: Science and Technology Textbook for Fourth Year (2012)
In modern power plants, steam turbines are used. They use superheated stem to make
the turbines of generators rotate.
A series of energy transformations occurs in the heat engine. When fuel burns, chemical
energy is transformed into thermal energy of the gas. This energy is then converted to the
piston’s mechanical energy.
The efficiency of heat engine depends on the temperature of its fuel (gas or steam) and
the temperature of its cooling system.
The second law of thermodynamics has an important implication on the efficiency of
heat engines. Recall that the efficiency of a machine is expressed as
𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑝𝑢𝑡
𝐸= 𝑥 100%
𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘 𝑖𝑛𝑝𝑢𝑡
A heat engine’s efficiency is thus expressed as

𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑝𝑢𝑡
𝐸= ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑡 𝑖𝑛𝑝𝑢𝑡
𝑥 100%
Heat input is the thermal energy converted to mechanical energy of the engine. Work
output is the amount of work done by the engine. For example, if heat is about 100 J and the
amount of work done by the engine is 20 J, then the efficiency is
20
𝐸= 𝑥 100%
100
= 20%
Sadi Carnot (1776-1832), a French army engineer who contributed to the development
of the heat engines, devised a method for calculating the efficiency of an ideal heat engine. His
equation, which is the limit for real engines, is expressed as

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
𝑇2
𝐸 = (1− ) 𝑥 100%
𝑇1
Where
T1 is the absolute temperature of the gas or steam
And
T2 is the absolute temperature of the engine’s cooling system
Recall that the absolute temperatures are expressed in Kelvin (K) where K = OC +273.
Carnot’s equation indicates that high efficiency needs big difference in temperature.

Generation, Transmission, and Distribution of Electrical Energy
Background Information for Learners
Energy is one of the most important concepts in science. Energy is everywhere in nature
sunlight, wind, water, plants, and animals. We use energy every day. Energy is the ability to
do work. We say that an object has energy if it can produce a change in itself or in its
surroundings. In other words, an object with energy can do work or can use up the energy. The
amount of energy you expend in moving something is equal to the work done on it. This is why
both work and energy have the same unit of measurement– Joules in the SI system.
How is electricity produced?
Electricity powers all our gadgets and appliances at home. Have you ever wondered
how electricity reaches us from the electric power plant? What processes does electricity have
to go through in order to reach us at home?
Figure 1. Parts of a Hydropower Plant
Various sources of energy are utilized to provide electricity to power our households.
For example, the tremendous energy produced by falling water is used by water turbines to
rotate large generators at a hydroelectric power plant.
As the water falls from the reservoir, its kinetic energy increases and it flows very fast.
The falling stream of water turns a fan-like device called a turbine, which is
connected to the generator’s shaft.
The rotation of the shaft turns powerful electromagnets that are surrounded by the coil
of copper wires. The coil is connected to a step-up transformer that sends high-voltage current
to power lines.

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
Other sources of energy at power plants include steam from burning fossil fuels, nuclear
reactions, wind and ocean tides. Each source provides the energy of motion to turbines then to
the generators, producing electrical energy. Power plants, in general, use generators to convert
kinetic energy into electrical energy. One specific source, however, uses solar panels made of
photovoltaic cells to convert sunlight into electrical energy instead of turbines. Can you explain
how other power plants work?
Figure 2. Parts of a Coal-Fired Power Plant
How is electricity transmitted and distributed?
From the power plants, electricity is then made to travel along cables and wires called
transmission lines. Transmission lines are commonly put up between transmission substations
which are regulated by the National Power Corporation. Transmission lines may either be
constructed overhead on towers or they may be underground. They are operated at high
voltages, send out large amounts of electrical power and extend over considerable distances.
From the generating station, the transmission substations step up the voltage to a range
of 138,000- 765,000 volts. Within the operating area, transmission substation reduce (step
down) the transmitted voltage to 34,500 – 138, 000 volts.
This power is then carried through lines to the distribution systems located n the local service
area.
The distribution system connects the transmission system to the customer’s household.
MERALCO is in charge of the electrical energy distribution in Metro Manila. The distribution
substations further step down the voltage to 2,400 – 19,920 volts. A step-down transformer
further reduces the voltage to 220 V – the standard AC voltage in the Philippines. This voltage
powers most of the electrical appliances we have at home.
How is the cost of electrical energy consumption computed?
Calculating Energy Use
Do you know that you can calculate your electric bill? But before that, let us know the
basis for calculating your electric bill. One of the factors to be considered is the power rating
of your appliance. By the way, what is power?

lOMoARcPSD|13198871
You learned in Grade 8 the three electrical basic quantities which are current, voltage,
and resistance. Multiplying the voltage and current is equal to power. For instance, the power
rating of an appliance depends on both the voltage and current
The formula in finding power ( in watts) is written below.

P=VI
Where ,
P=Power (watts)
V= Voltage (volts)
I= Current (Amperes)
For example, an electric fan draws 5-A current from a 220-V outlet, its power input is
1,100 W. For one appliance, the power rating is large in number, so the unit used for combined
power rating in a household is in kilowatt (kW) which is equal to 1000 watts. All of the
appliances in a household may have a combined power rating, that is why, energy is usually
computed based on the time of usage of the appliances.
To get the total energy used by an appliance in an hour, multiply the power consumption
by the one hour as in the formula below:
E = Pt
where: E = Energy used (kWh)
P = Power, (W)
T = Time (s)
The unit of measurement for energy usage is kilowatt-hour (kWh) which is one kilowatt
of power for a period of one hour. For example, the reading in the analog meter in Figure 1
shows that the customer has used almost 8000kWh, 7796 kWh to be exact, while the reading
in the digital meter of another customer is exactly 40.608 kWh. To find how much energy you

Sample Problem:
1. All of the computers in the ICT room are in use for 5 hours every day and together use 8.3
kW. How much energy is used in a day?
Given: P = 8.3 kW
T=5h
Find: Energy used
E = Pt
E = (8.3 kW) (5h)
E = 41.5 kWh
2. How much does it cost to operate a 400 W television for 8 hours if electrical energy costs
6.88 pesos per kWh (includes both generation and distribution charges - Meralco rate as of
January, 2014) ?
Find: cost to operate
E=Pt
E=(0.400kW)(8h)
E=3.2kWh
Cost=(3.2kWh)(6.88pesos/kWh)
Cost= 22.04 pesos

Using Energy Wisely
We use energy to do work every day. Most of the time, it is easier to make use of
those that come from non-renewable sources because of their availability in the market, for
example, the gasoline that serves as fuel for our cars, motors and equipment and the LPG gas
that we use to cook our food. Our growing energy consumption and depleting energy sources
pose a great problem because we are using more energy than we produce.
To solve this problem, we can only do two things: tap more renewable sources, which surely
will cost us more, or use the available energy wisely. We cannot do anything with the non-
renewable energy sources because they involve natural processes. For instance, say it take
millions of years before fossil fuels are formed. But we can always save and economize on
our available energy.
Explain how electrical energy is generated, transmitted, and distributed.

Activity 1
Jumbled Letters
Directions: The passage below contains keywords on energy that have been jumbled up and
italicized. Rearrange these words
Energy cannot be (1) dactree nor (2) reyossetdd, but it can be changed from one form
to another. The amount of energy during the change may be the same. The type or quality of
energy is useful for living organisms but it is not so useful in mechanical processes. Too much
heat produced by industrial production and operating equipment contributes to global (3)
mwgrain. At the same time, this means energy is lost and usable energy is reduced.
We get most of our energy from the sun. This is because billions of nuclear reactions
occur at the core. The sun can be thought as a giant nuclear (4) rotacre. The energy it emits
will be gone one day, though that will not be for many millions of years at least. It has been
estimated that the mass of the sun is being converted to energy at the rate of 4 million tons per
second.
(5) tilercreal energy is the movement of electrons from one atom to another. An
example of electricity is lightning. When the sky collects many electrons, they travel through
the air molecules to meet the more positive earth to get rid of the sky’s extra electrons. The
electrons will continue to travel from the negative point to the positive until the charges
equalize.

Activity 1:

Q1. What are the different stations in the transmission of energy?
Electricity is produced in the power plants, transmitted at high current and
voltage in transmission substations, passed the distribution substations, then
finally distributed to business and residential areas.
Q2. What did you observe with the size of the transmission lines as it reaches the
consumers?
Transmission lines have a greater cross-sectional area to allow a large amount
of current to pass through. Having a large cross section also reduces the
resistance, lessening transmission loss. The residential wirings have much
smaller cross sectional area.
Q3. Does the size of wires and cables used matter in energy transmission?
Yes, it ensures safety in the entire network system and reduces transmission
losses.
Q4. What happens to the voltage that travels from the source to the consumers?
The voltage is stepped-up for transmission and stepped-down before distributed
to households.
Q5. What are step-up transformers? Step-down transformers?
Step-up transformers increase the voltage while step-down transformers decrease
the voltage to be consumed at safe level.

Activity 5: Energy-Saving Tips
Possible answer
Washing Machine
Do not over-wash clothes. Different types of clothes require different wash
cycles. Delicate clothes do not take as long as dirty work clothes.
Presoak soiled garments to avoid using additional wash cycles.
When using your spinner, make sure that water is drained from the cylinder
and clothes are squeezed to effectively spin-dry clothes.
Light and lamps
Use natural light whenever possible. It is the best source of light and will help
you save kilowatt hours. Strategically arrange your household in such a way that
you can use natural light. Place reading tables near windows and put skylights in
other working areas.
Use lamps that provide direct lighting over desks, beds, and other work areas.
This method saves more energy compared to the higher wattage lighting needed
to illuminate the whole room.
Use low wattage light bulbs in areas
Clothes Iron
Iron large batches of clothing at one time to avoid wasting energy and
reheating the iron several times.
Dampen clothes moderately. Excessively moistened clothes take longer to
iron.
Do not overheat the iron. Set the temperature appropriately for the type of
clothes to avoid scorching and wasting energy.
Electric Fan
Turn off your electric fan when not in use.
Perform regular maintenance to keep your electric fan running more
efficiently, and save up to 30% of fan energy.
Clean your electric fans regularly, to keep them running efficiently. Remove
the dust accumulated at the fan blades, motor housings, and grills as it reduces
the air current generated by the fan.
Television
Switch off your TV set when no one is watching. If you are using a
transformer, unplug it because it consumes electricity.
Don't use the standby mode because this uses 10% to as much as 60% of the
electricity that would be used by your TV set if it were switched on.
Too much television viewing and playing of video games of kids can be
substituted by educational board games and teaching them light sports to lessen
television electricity consumption.
Replace old TV tube sets with solid-state TV sets because these types use
significantly less energy.
