Most Essential
Learning
Competency:
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. (Week

DISPLACEMENT
VELOCITY
ACCELERATION
What is the
difference between
displacement,
velocity and
acceleration?
Displacement
• the gap between the initial position
and the final position of the object.
Velocity
• The speed at which something moves
in one direction.
Acceleration
• the time rate of change of the velocity
of an object.
What do we need
to apply to us to
do our daily
activity?
What is
force?
•Force is the push and pull
applied of an object resulting
from the object’s interaction
with another object.
•A force is any influence that,
when unopposed, will
change the motion of an
object.
Terms to be
familiarize:
• Magnitude
• Direction
• Point of application
• Line of action
Magnitude
• refers to the size or
strength of the force.
• It is commonly expressed
in:
Newton (N) for Meter-
Kilogram-Second
(MKS) system, Dyne
(dyn) for Centimeter–
Gram–Second (CGS)
system and pounds
(lbs) for Foot–
Pound–Second (FPS)
system.
•
Direction
points to where the object
goes.
• The direction of the
arrowhead indicates the
direction of the force.
• The length of the arrow
represents the
• amount of force (relative
magnitude).
Point of
• Application
the location of where the
force is applied.
Line of Action
• is the straight
line passing
through the
point of
application and
is parallel to
the direction of
force.
2 Types of
Force
Contact
Non-
Contact
What is difference
between contact
and non-contact
force?
Contact vs. Non-
• contact
Contact Forces are those forces
where objects touch or contact with
each other.
• while; Non-Contact forces are forces
where objects do not touch or
contact with each other. These
forces act over a zone or area called
field.

4 Examples of
Contact
Forces
Contacts Forces
• Applied
Force
• Friction
Force
• Normal
Force
Applied Forces
• a force given to a
person or object by
another person or
object.
• Its symbol is F
depending on who
or what applies
Friction Forces
• is the force acting against or
opposite an object in contact
with which makes the
movement of the object slow
down.
• Friction (Ff) always opposes
the motion of an object.
• For free-falling objects, this
force is always considered
negligible, meaning the
magnitude is unnoticeable.
Normal Forces
• It is the force that
acts perpendicular
to the surface of the
object in contact
with.
• Its symbol is FN.
NORMAL
FORCE (FN)
Weight)
Tension Force Forces
• It is the force
applied to string,
rope, chain or cable.
• Its symbol is T or FT
TENSION

Non-
Contact
Forces
2 Examples of
Non-Contact
Forces
Non-Contacts Forces
• Gravitational
Force
• Magnetic Force
Gravitational Forces
• is the force of
attraction
between two
objects.
• Mass and distance
of the two objects
affect the
Magnetic Forces
• are forces exerted
on a field of
attraction or
repulsion as in the
case of magnets
and other
magnetic

F(net) = Fn + Fg
GRESA METHOD:
GIVEN:
Fn = 5 units , Fg = - 5 units
No motion
REQUIRED:
Fnet ?
EQUATION:
F(net) = Fn + Fg
SOLUTION:
F(net) = (5 units) + (- 5 units)
ANSWER:
Zero (0) balanced FORCE
F(net) = Fn + Fg
What will be the net force of the object,
if a boy and a girl pull the heavy crate at
the same time in opposite directions
with 20 units and 10 units of force
respectively? Will the object move? To
what direction will it move?
