A. Activity
Activity 1: Is there work done?
In this activity, students will identify situations and be able to explain if work is done.
Procedure:
Tell whether the situations shown below represent examples of work. Identify the
one doing the work and on which object the work is done. Write in your notebook your
answers and explanations.
1. A girl pulling her cart.
2. A man lifting a box to be placed on a table.
3. A girl carrying a bag walking down the street.
4. A mango fruit falling from a branch.
B. Analysis
1. Which of the four situations demonstrated or showed that work is done? Why?
2. Why do you think situation number 3 did not show that no work is done? Why?
3. What is the effect of the force the object?
4. How will you relate the force and the direction of the motion?
4. When can we say that work is done?

C. Abstraction
Work is present when the force exerted causes an object to have a displacement
in the same direction of the force.

D. Application:
Agree or Disagree
Ask the students to take a stand by showing thumbs up or thumbs down sign
with the following statements.
1. Work does not necessarily mean physical labor.
2. If there is displacement in the same direction of the force then there is work
automatically.
3. Work done at a very limited time frame means there is high power output.
4. If there is no force exerted, there won‘t be any work output.
5. If force and distance move at an angle there is work one.

IV. Assessment
Identify situations in which work is done and in which no work is done. Write W if
the situation shows work and NW if no work.
1. Lifting a box from the floor.
2. Pushing against the wall.
3. Pushing a box along the floor.
4. Carrying a bag of grocery
5. Raising a flag during the flag ceremony
. Assignment:
