What’s New
Activity 1: Dropping Objects

Instruction: Drop the two objects in the same height at the same time. Write your

observation on a separate sheet of paper.

Figure 1

If these two object are allowed to drop at the same time and at the same height
which of these two objects will reach the ground first? And why?

__________________________________________________________________________________

What is It
Motion in a universal definition is a movement or change of place, direction
or location in a given time. An action is taking place and is frequently termed as
direction, location and speed. Our daily activities like eating, walking, running,
washing dishes, closing the window and the door are example of motion.

Aristotle (c. 384 B.C. to 322 B.C.) was an Ancient Greek philosopher and
scientist who is still considered one of the greatest thinkers in politics, psychology
and ethics. In 335, Aristotle founded his own school, the Lyceum, in Athens, where
he spent most of the rest of his life studying, teaching and writing. According to
him, there is a proper place for every object in the universe. Where he believed that
motion has two types, natural motion and violent motion.

Natural motion as Aristotle stated, the objects have a tendency to look for
 their natural resting place. (See Figure 4)

As the illustration above, the natural motion

that is
being referred to by Aristotle is clearly stated
that
the fruit of a tree falls into the ground
naturally
without being force to change its direction.
Falling
towards the earth or ground is the resting
place of
the fruit. Another example of Natural motion
is a
plate at rest at your hand will naturally remain at
rest, if you accidentally release or let go of the
plate, it naturally falls towards the floor. Why is
this so? This is because it’s original and natural

direction is falling towards the earth.

Figure 4
Another type of motion according to
Aristotle is violent motion. It is a motion that is
being enforced because it is the result of a force
or external force applying to an object. It is any
force that competes against natural motion.
Figure 3 will show the concrete example of a
violent motion. Figure 5

Figure 5 shows the Carabao pulling a cart, there is an external force from a
Carabao in pulling the cart causing it to move forward. There is an imposed force
applied to the cart. Most common example of violent motion is the pushing and
pulling of an object. Horse pulling a cart, a boy pushing his toy car, pushing a book
along the table and lifting a plate are considered violent motion according to
Aristotle.

5
On the other hand, Galileo Italian Physicist viewed on motion is in contrast to
what Aristotle view on motion. To understand their respective principle, let us tackle
one by one the specific motion relevant to their views. Let us start with the Free
Falling motion or Vertical motion, Aristotle stated that heavier object falls faster that
the lighter one. Given the initial motion started the same time with the same height,
a big rock will hit the ground faster than a falling leaves. Contrary to this, Galileo’s
 view that is widely believed that the objects will hit the ground at the same time
regardless of which is massive among the two or will fall into the ground at constant
acceleration due to gravity. Let us say, dropping a scissor and a piece of paper from
the same height at the same time, as to Aristotle assertion, the scissor would fall
quickly and will hit the floor first than a piece of paper because the scissor is much
heavier than a paper. While Galileo claimed that the scissor and the paper will hit
the ground together because he wanted to prove that the rate of fall or acceleration
of the scissor and the paper is not affected by their mass.

Figure 6
The two object will reach the ground at the same time regardless of their
masses, but if you drop objects of different masses in the presence of air resistance
the more massive object will reach the ground first.

Another is the Horizontal motion, in Aristotelian view of this motion, he

emphasized the role of natural motion as previously presented that the objects will
have a tendency to look for their resting place and the natural state of an object is
one at rest except for a celestial bodies because they were naturally moving or in
motion and in order the object to keep in
motion a force is required. Galileo did
not
believed of Aristotle claimed, he stressed
that
the object will keep in motion in the
absence
of friction.

Figure 7 illustrates that in the

Aristotle’s view the ball will move
horizontally
continuously until the applied force is
run out
and it will look for its resting place. Galileo’s
view on the other hand believed that the ball
will move continuously and endlessly in a Figure 7
perfect smooth surface and without friction.

Projectile motion is the motion of an object thrown or projected into the air,
subject to only the acceleration of gravity. The object is called a projectile, and its
path is called its trajectory (https://courses.lumenlearning.com/physics).

6
In projectile motion, Aristotle believed that the object moves in constant
motion horizontally to the ground until the object find its resting place which is
falling back to the ground. On the other hand Galileo believed that a projectile
moves in constant horizontal motion simultaneously with a constant vertical
acceleration.
See Illustrations below.
Illustration by Aristotle on projectile Illustration by Galileo on projectile
motion Figure 7.1 motion Figure 7.2

Figure 6.1 shows that Aristotle view on projectile motion boils down to a
violent and natural motion, it shows that the canon ball moves in a straight line
until its “impetus” ( initial force supplied to an object) run out and that’s the time
that the canon ball will fall to the ground as it’s resting place. The ball travels
horizontally in a constant motion.

Figure 6.2 shows that Galileo asserted that the projectile motion is parabolic.
This means that the canon ball moves in two-dimensional motion which are the
constant horizontal motion at the same time its vertical motion depends on the pull
of the earth’s gravity which is acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s2. The
horizontal and vertical motion are two independent motions. Galileo farther
discussed that motion along y-axis is a free fall motion and in x-axis is a uniform
motion.

Activity 1.0
Analyze the illustration below and answer the given question. Write your answer on
your activity notebook.

A. Sky diver in

vertical position B. Sky diver in horizontal position

Q1: Which position needed of a sky diver to reach the ground

faster? Why do you think so?

Q2: What is the cause of some fallen objects to slow downward?

Q3: What would happen if there wasn’t any air resistance to slow down falling
objects?

11

What is It
Free fall is a downward motion under the influence of gravitational force.
From the first activity you did, you proved Galileos point of view of free fallen
bodies.

If you release both objects in

horizontal position with different
masses in
the same height you probably notice
that
both bodies will reach the ground in
the
same rate. However, if the two objects
release in airless environment or in a
vacuum both bodies regardless to
their
masses will fall at the same time. See
figure
1.0.

Inside the vacuum (airless

environment) both feather and apple hit the ground in the same rate regardless to
their masses. In air, apple will fall first on the ground is this because of the air
present in the environment that resist objects position directly downward.

Therefore, in air the lighter object will fall slow down because of countless
particles of air that collides with the objects called the air resistance. The more air
resistance it take the object to fall decreases the downward speed of an object.

In the absence of air resistance a falling

objects will increase its velocity by 9.80 m/s2
in every after a second and the value of this is
called the acceleration due to gravity. (a=g)
this is always directed downwards.

The initial velocity of the ball is zero

because the motion is at rest. The ball
will fall because of gravitational force of
the earth (9.80m/s). The ball will reach
the ground in 3m distance after 3
seconds time.

See the figure 3.0: The ball fall in a

constant acceleration in equal time
period.

12
The initial velocity of the ball is 0m/s at rest. If you analyze the figure above
the ball accelerated 5 m/s in every two seconds and that is called uniformly or
constant accelerated motion. Uniform or constant accelerated motion is a type of
motion in which the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every
equal time period.
Note! Equations to solve problems in Free fall; simply let a=g

n 3 Law of Motion

What’s In

In your previous lesson, you have learned that the acceleration

of free falling objects is called the acceleration due to gravity, since
objects are pulled towards the center of the earth. The acceleration due
 to gravity is constant on the surface of the Earth and has the value of
9.80 m/s2.
The motion of falling objects is the simplest and most common example of
motion with changing velocity. If a coin and a piece of paper are simultaneously
dropped side by side, the paper takes much longer to hit the ground. However, if
you crumple the paper into a compact ball and drop the items again, it will look
like both the coin and the paper hit the floor simultaneously. This is because the
amount of force acting on an object is a function of not only its mass, but also area.
Free fall is the motion of a body where its weight is the only force
acting on an object.

What’s New

Instruction: Perform the activity given below. Write your observations on Activity
Notebook.

✔ Put it on the top of the table.
✔ Observe the ball at the top of

What is It
 Galileo Galilei an Italian Physicist stated that, an object moving on a constant
velocity will continue to move when there

is no forces act on them. This means that when an object is moving in and no other
forces acts on it the object will be moving endlessly. Consider the following
illustrations (Figure 2).

Figure 2.1 Figure 2.2 Figure 2.3

As shown in the illustration, Galileo performed an experiment. He found out

that if the ball in the illustration (figure 2.1 & Figure 2.2) starts to roll, the ball
returns to the amount of height equal to its final position due to the obstacle met
along the way, if these obstacles were remove; the ball would continue to move in
eternity as shown in the illustration (figure 2.3). He farther inferred that the
smoothness of the surface will have an effect on the continuous rolling of the ball,
the smoother that surface the farther the ball rolls continuously.

Isaac Newton an English physicist stated that bodies at rest will remain at
rest while object in motion will remain in motion with the same speed and direction
unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Knowing Newton’s first law of motion on your previous lesson, it only shows
us that Galileo’s idea about motion helps us to determine the origin of Newton’s
idea about his laws of motion. Inertia is the general tendency of any object to resist
motion. That is the reason why the idea of these two scientists relates because both
ideas consider the forces acting on each objects.
Newton also stated that the more mass of an objects, the more inertia it has.
This means that the more massive objects are harder to start moving and stop
moving and smaller objects are easier to start and stop moving.
To fully understand the statement above, focus on
this
example (Figure 3)

Cow has more Inertia than a cat because cow is

massive than a cat, which means it is harder to a small
push cow than a cat or change a cow’s motion rock because it has a greater mass, therefore it
than a cat’s motion. has more inertia.

It takes more force to push the bigger rock than Figure 3Figure 3.1
