Dynamics Uniform Forces Motion Fundamental


Circular Motion
Newton’s First Newton’s mass force acceleration
Law Second law
Newton’s Action and friction Non-fundamental
Third Law forces reaction

About the Pre-Activity: In physics, Dynamics deals with the forces that can be
fundamental or non-fundamental. These forces are related to motion that is governed by
Newton’s first law of motion which deals with inertia. The second law of motion relates
with mass, force and acceleration that includes friction. The third law of motion is about
action and reaction forces and also motion includes uniform circular motion.

Motions of objects on earth are governed by the Newton’s Law of Motion. You cannot
touch without being touched. That’s the third law of motion. Several kinds of forces acting
on objects that can change their motion. Sometimes, as a student in physics class, you might
say that force is simply the push or pull upon an object.

Force is a push or pull exerted by one body on another; it changes the motion of an object.
For an example, children playing tumbang preso. You might not realize that this game
involves physics. You hit the can using the slipper and suddenly the can moves from being
at rest because of the force you applied.

We consider force as vector quantity which means it has both magnitude (numerical value
consisting its unit) and direction. Some examples of vector quantities are acceleration,
momentum and force. In scalar quantity, it only has magnitude without direction such as
time, mass, temperature and distance. These physical quantities can be classified as scalars
or vectors.

The SI Unit (International System of Units) of force is Newton, denoted by capital letter
“N”. In which, 1 Newton is the force that needed to move a 1-kilogram mass accelerated
at 1 m/s2.

1 N= 1 kg∙m/s2

Types of Forces: Fundamental and Non-fundamental

There are two general types of forces-the fundamental and non-fundamental.


Gravitational force, strong nuclear force, electromagnetic force, and weak nuclear force
are the only forces that have been discovered.

Fundamental Forces:

Gravitational Force is the gravitational attraction of the mass of the earth, the moon, or a
planet for bodies at or near it surface (definition from Merriam Webster). It is responsible
for the weight of the body on earth as well as the motion.

Electromagnetic Force is responsible for the interactions between two particles (an
attractive or repulsive force).

Strong Nuclear force holds particles of an atom together, the closer the particles are the
greater the force.

Weak Nuclear Force plays an important role in radioactive decay of nuclei.

Remember: Other than friction, gravity, push or pull and other forces considered as non-
fundamental forces

Contact and Non-Contact Forces

For example, you touched the wall and it didn’t move. Do you think that there’s a force on
it?

Forces may result from direct physical contact between two objects, which means even the
wall did not move still there is a force governing on it. That force is called contact force.

The following are the examples of contact forces:

• Air resistance
• Normal force
• Friction

On the other hand, if the type of force doesn’t involve any physical contact we consider it
as non-contact forces. In nature, all the fundamental forces are considered as non-contact
force. Still you are affected even if there is no physical contact.

Mass and Weight

Mass and weight are closely related. Sometimes when they ask your weight you might say
“I am 45 kg” but it wrong; 45 kg is your mass. Why?

Mass is simply the quantity of matter which remains constant while weight is the force of
the body affected by the gravity, which means that your mass is still 45 kg on earth and
still 45 kg on other planets. Mass is scalar quantity while weight is vector. The SI unit for
mass is kilogram (kg) while in weight is the newton denoted as capital letter N.

In finding your weight you need the formula below:


W= mg

Where: W is weight, m is mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity

Here on earth, the acceleration due to gravity is constant to 9.8 m/s2.

Sample Problem:

Layla has a mass of 40 kg. (a.) What is her weight on Earth? (b.) What is her weight on the
moon if g is 1/6 that of the earth?

Solution:
A. Given: m=45 kg g=9.8 m/s2
Using the formula: W=mg and substituting values
W= (40 kg) (9.8 m/s2)
= 392 kg∙m/s2
= 392 N

B. On the moon, her mass doesn’t change but her weight will change.
W= (40 kg) (9.8 m/s2)/6
=65.33 N

In order for an object to change the state of motion, force is needed. The activity above
demonstrates the resistance of an object to change its state of motion. Changing the body states of
motion depends on inertia.
Inertia is the property of an object that tends to resist a change in its state of motion. The measure
of inertia is mass. Mass and inertia are directly proportional. The greater the mass the greater the
inertia. The more massive an object is, the harder it is to change the state of motion. Therefore,
less mass means less inertia and it easier to change the state of motion.
Newton’s first law of motion, the law of inertia states that “an object at rest will remain at rest
and an object in motion remains in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force”.
Therefore, an object will change only its state of motion upon acted by an outside force.
Applications:

1 In order for a stalled car to start it motion, the car must be pushed.
2. A person riding a vehicle at a constant velocity and suddenly stop.
3. Pulling a tissue paper.

Practice Exercise: Explain the 3 applications above using concepts in inertia.

1. The first law of motion states that an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion
will remain in motion unless acted by an external force which means in order for a desk to change
its position you need to exert force. The greater the mass, the greater its inertia and the greater the
force needed.

• Solve problems involving net force, mass and acceleration

Lesson 1.1.2: Newton’s Second Law of Motion: Law of Acceleration

Pre-Activity: Force and Acceleration


Objective:
After this activity, you should be able to describe how the net force acting on an object affects
its acceleration.
Procedure:
Consider this situation below:
A group of students conducted an experiment to determine the relationship between the force
acting on the object and its acceleration. They used identical rubber bands to pull the cart as
shown in Figure A. They varied the number of rubber bands to vary the force acting on the
cart. They started with 1 rubber band, then with 2, 3, and 4 rubber bands, making sure that they
stretched the rubber bands to the same length every time they pull the cart. They used a ticker
tape timer to determine the acceleration of the cart. A ticker tape was connected to the cart
such that when the cart was pulled, the paper tape will be pulled through the timer. And as the
paper tape was pulled through the timer, small dots are formed on the tape.

Figure A. Cart pulled by rubber bands

Starting with the tape for 1 rubber band, they marked the first clear dot and every 6th dot thereafter
and cut the tape along these points (Figure 9). Then they pasted the strips side by side in order on
a graphing paper to produce the tape chart for F=1 unit. They did the same for the other tapes to
produce tape charts for F=2 units, F=3 units, and F=4 units.

Figure A: Sample tape


A. Tape chart analysis

1. Obtain from your teacher the copies of the tape charts produced by the students for the 4 runs.
Q1. Compare the charts. What similarities and differences have you noticed among them?
The length of strip in each chart represents the total distance travelled by the cart over a time
interval of 0.10 seconds. Recall that the total distance travelled over a unit time gives the average
velocity of the moving body, or speed when travelling in straight line. Hence, each strip represents
the average velocity of the cart over a time interval of 0.10 seconds.
2. Examine the tape chart for F=1 unit.
Q1. What does the increase in the lengths of the strips suggest? What can you say about the motion
of the cart - is it moving in uniform motion or is it accelerating? Is this also true with the other
runs?
Q2. How do you compare the increase in length of the strips in F= 1 unit? What does this tell you
about the change in the velocity of the cart? Is this also true with the other tape charts?
Q3. How do you compare the increase in length of the strips among the four tape charts? Which
tape chart shows the greatest increase in the length of the strips? Which tape chart shows the least
increase in the length of the strips?
3. Draw a line that passes through all the dots at the ends of the strips in F=1 unit. Do the same for
the other tape charts.
Q4. Describe the line formed. Does the same pattern exist for the other tape charts?
B. Quantitative analysis
You can also use the tape chart to compute for the average velocity (vave), change in velocity
(Δv), and acceleration (a) of the cart for each run. Work only on the tape chart assigned to your
group. Other groups will be working on the other charts. You may follow the simple instruction
below.
4. Label each strip 1,2,3,4, and 5 as shown in Figure B.

Outcome-Based Learning Module

Legazpi ● Ligao ● Polangui

5. Compute for the average velocity of the cart over each time interval by measuring the length of
the strip and dividing it by the time covered to travel such distance. Example, if the length of the
strip is equal to 2.5 cm, then the average velocity during that time interval will be
vave = 2.5 cm / 0.10sec
= 25 cm/s

Q5. How do the values of vave compare? What does this tell you about the motion of the cart?
6. Next, determine the difference in the average velocities (Δv) of the cart between two successive
time intervals. Example, you can get the difference in the average velocities between strips 1 & 2,
between strips 2 & 3, and so on.
Q6. How do the computed values of Δv compare? What does this tell you about the motion of the
cart?
7. Recall that acceleration is defined as the change in velocity per unit of time. To get the
acceleration of the cart, divide your computed values of Δv in step 6 by 0.10 seconds, the unit of
time. Have at least three computed values of acceleration.
Q7. How do your computed values of acceleration compare?
8. Compute for the average acceleration aave.
9. Ask from the other groups the values of a ave for the other tape charts. Record them all in Table
1 below.
Table 1. Computed values of aave

Tape Chart Number of Rubber Bands Computed aave


F=1 unit 1
F=2 unit 2
F=3 unit 3
F=4 unit 4

Q8. In this activity, the number of rubber bands represents the magnitude or amount of the force
acting on the cart. How is acceleration of the cart related to the amount of force acting on it?

Law of Acceleration
“The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force acting on
it and is inversely proportional to its mass.”
Based from the activity above, we can say that the unbalanced force (F) is directly proportional at
constant mass (m) and the acceleration of an object. This relationship can be mathematically
expressed as:
Fnet=ma

The acceleration of an object depends with the mass. As the mass of the object increases, with the
same amount of force applied, its acceleration decreases. It tells about the effect of mass on an
object to its acceleration produced by a net force.

Therefore, we can say that the acceleration is directly proportional to the net force and inversely
proportional to its mass. This can be expressed in equation form as:
Acceleration = Net force / Mass
a = Fnet /m

Sample Problems:
A. Suppose you throw a ball with a mass of 0.50 kg and exert 15 N of force. Find the
acceleration of an object.
Solution:
Given: m=0.50 kg, F=15 N,

Law of Interaction
“In every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction”.

The third law of Newton states that if an object A exerts force to object B, the object B should
exert force oppositely directed from object A. If you exert 10 N force to a wall, the wall also pushes
you back at 10 N force equally.

This means that law of interaction governs the following condition:


• action and reaction forces are equal in magnitude.
• action and reaction forces will not cancel out.
• force always comes in pairs.

Let’s consider the following situations:


1. A flower vase rests on the table.
2. A bicycle is parked on the ground.
3. Student sitting on the lounge.

The situations above show the action and reaction relationship. The flower vase exert force
downward on the table and the table exerts force upward equally in magnitude.

You can simply say that:

Forceflower vase on table = Forcetable on flower vase

Forcebicycle = Forceground

Forcestudent on lounge = Forcelounge on student

Lesson 1.2: Uniform Circular Motion

Uniform circular motion (UCM) is accelerated motion. Consider that a car travelling at a circular
path at a constant speed with changing velocity is an example of UCM. Due to the continuous
change in direction, the velocity is changing therefore the acceleration too. The acceleration is
“centripetal” in which it is always directed toward the circular path.
The centripetal acceleration of an object with a speed v moving around a circle of radius r is:
acp= v2/r

The force producing by the centripetal acceleration called centripetal force.


Using the law of acceleration:

Work is the product of force and displacement of an object that moves under the influence of force
applied. For example, pushing a trolley and pulling a cart. These two situations show that there is
a work done because a force is applied and the object moves upon which it acts.
Let’s check your understanding: Write NW (no work) or WD (work is done) on the following
situations.

1. Pushing a wall: _______


2. Pushing grocery cart: _______
3. A woman pulling her suitcase: _______

Answer: Pushing a wall, no work is done. Both pushing grocery cart and pulling a suitcase are
work is done.

There are two quantities that are involved in work, the force applied and the displacement. The
displacement moved by the body must be in the direction on which the force acts. In symbols,
W=Fd

where W is work, F is the force applied and d is the displacement


Hence, the unit of work is joule (abbreviated as J) in honor of James Prescott Joule.

𝑊=𝐹𝑑

𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘=𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑐𝑒 𝑥 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘

=𝑁∙𝑚 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘

=𝑁∙𝑚 or 𝑗𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑒𝑠, 𝐽
Note: This formula is applicable only when Force and Displacement is parallel to each other.

Sample Problems:
Suppose a woman pushing a grocery cart with a 400 Newton force along the 8 meter aisle, how
much work is done in pushing a grocery cart from one end of the aisle to the other?
Given: F=400 N, d= 8 m
Find: W
Formula: 𝑊=𝐹𝑑

on the object?

When the force and displacement are in horizontal due to the applied force, the equation for
work should be:

W=Fd(cosƟ)
If Ɵ is the angle between the direction of F and d parallel to each other is Fd(cosƟ).

Lesson 2.2: Energy


Energy is needed to do work. It is everywhere and it changes from one form to another. In this
lesson, you will study energy and its forms.
In Physics, energy is defined as the ability to do work. A system with energy has the ability to do
work. You can’t perform work without energy. There are various forms of energy such a
mechanical, heat, light, chemical, potential and kinetic energy, but in this lesson we will focus
only on two major forms the potential and kinetic. The unit of energy is expressed with joules, J.
Remember: NO ENERGY MEANS NO WORK CAN BE DONE!

POTENTIAL ENERGY (PE)


It is a stored energy possesses by the body. There are two main forms of potential energy:
Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) and Elastic Potential Energy (EPE) but we will focus only
on GPE.
Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE)

Is the energy possessed by the with respect to it mass, the acceleration due to gravity and the height
respectively. The greater the mass and the higher the height the greater the GPE. To express GPE
mathematically:

GPE=mgh
Where m is the mass of an object, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height. Remember
that the reference point of the height is the ground.

Sample Problems:
Suppose a 76 kg of box is placed at a height of 4 m. Find the GPE of the box gains.
Given: m=76 kg, h=4 m and g is constant to 9.8 m/s2
Find: GPE
Formula: GPE=mgh
GPE=mgh
= (76kg) (9.8m/s2)(4m)
=2979.2 J

31 | P a g e S C I E N C E 8 - J u n i o r H i g h S c h o o l
Outcome-Based Learning Module

If a man climbs a wall that is 8 m high and it gains a 3000 J of GPE. Calculate the mass of the
man.

Given: GPE=3000 J, h=8m and g is constant to 9.8 m/s2


Find: m
Formula: GPE=mgh
GPE=mgh
m=GPE/gh
=3000 J/(9.8m/s2)(8)
=38.37 kg

Practice Exercise:
A man has a mass of 45 kg sitting on a 0.200 m chair. Calculate the GPE of the man.

KINETIC ENERGY
Is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion. For an example, an athlete running and a
car travelling at 60 km/h. It that sense, there are two quantities that affect the KE of an object, the
mass and the velocity. It is expressed mathematically as:
1
KE=2mv2

where m is the mass and v is the velocity. It is also expressed in momentum (p) as:
KE=p2/2m
where p is the momentum on an object and m is the mass.
We will only use the first formula for KE.
1
KE=2mv2

This formula shows a direct relationship between the KE, the mass and the velocity of the object.
This means, the massive the object is and the faster it travels, the greater the kinetic energy. The
unit for KE is joule, J.

Work, Power and Energy


Work is done when the force applied succeeds in moving an object. Energy is the ability to do
work. Without energy, a system can’t produce work. How do work and energy related to power?

Power is the rate of doing work. Mathematically,


P=W/t
Power=Work/Time
=J/s
1 Watt=1 Joules/second
W=J/s

The SI unit for power is watt (W) named after James Watt. We can also use another unit which is
horsepower (hp). The power is directly proportional to watts and inversely proportional to time.
1 hp=746 watts

Sample Problem:

Mang Tomas stalled his jeepney in the middle of the street and he called for some volunteers to
help him pushing the jeep. The volunteers push the jeep at 200 m away from where it stopped.
They exerted 1500 N to push the vehicle for almost 12 minutes. Calculate the power of the
volunteers who pushed the jeep.
Given: F= 1500 N, d= 200 m, t=12 min.
Find: P
Solution:
W=Fd
=1500 N∙200 m Note: Convert minutes into second in
=300 000 J finding the time.
=3.0x105 J

how fast energy is used. The power is directly proportional to work and inversely proportional to
time. At short time with greater work results to greater power.

The activity above shows the movement of the particles affects by sound. So, let us start discussing
about the sounds.

SOUND

A sound is a wave that carries energy. It travels at different speeds in different media. The energy
produced when an object vibrates and this energy is being transmitted through wave. This means
that sound needs a medium to propagate or travel. According to Sir Isaac Newton, sound waves
travel through a medium depends on the density and the elasticity of an object. The density is the
mass per unit volume while elasticity is the ability of a material to undergo temporary change in
size, shape or volume depends on the force applied, it measured by its elastic modulus.

A medium can be a solid, fluids or in an ideal gas.

The formula in finding the speed of sound waves is given by:

𝐸
𝑣=√
𝜌

where E is the elastic modulus in N/m2 and ρ is the density in kg/m3.

Speed of Sound in Solids

Sounds travel fastest in solid and slowest in gas because solid is much denser compared to liquid
and gas. The particle in solid is much closer together so it collides quickly as sounds travel through
it and it has greater elastic moduli.

Sounds consider as longitudinal wave. These are waves that travel parallel to the motion of the
particles. The modulus elasticity of sound can be calculated through Young’s modulus (Y).
Mathematically,
𝑌
𝑣=√
𝜌
where Y is the Young’s modulus in N/m2.

Speed of Sound in Fluids


Fluids refer to gases and liquids. The speed of sound in fluids is bulk modulus.

𝛽
𝑣=√
𝜌

where β is the bulk modulus in N/m2.

The bulk modulus in gases given the formula:

У𝑃
𝑣=√
𝜌

where P is the pressure in Pa (1 Pa=1 N/m2) , У is the specific heat of the gas at constant pressure
and volume. У has a value of 1.40 for air and other diatomic molecules and 1.66 for helium and
monoatomic gases.

Speed of Sounds in Ideal Gas


The equation in finding the speed of sound in ideal gas is:
𝑃 𝑅𝑇
=
𝑝 𝑀

У𝑅𝑇
v =√ 𝑀

where R is the universal gas constant=8.314 J/mol∙K, T is the temperature in Kelvin and M is the
molar mass in kg/mol. This shows that the speed of sound is directly proportional to the square
root of the absolute temperature and inversely proportional its molar mass. Thus, as the molar mass
decreases the speed of sound increases.

Q4. Since wave speed is directly dependent on frequency, then, which cylinder gives the fastest
sound?
Q5. How would you relate the temperature of the medium with the speed of sound?

Adapted from: Department of Education. (DepEd) Learning Module for Grade 8.,pp.83-84.

The speed of sound is greater at higher temperature. The relationship between the speed of sound
and temperature can be expressed mathematically as:

V=331 m/s + (0.6 m/s°C) T


where T is the temperature of air in °C. Remember that 331 m/s is the approximated speed of
sound at 0°C.

• Explain that red is the least bent and violet is the most bent according to their wavelengths
or frequencies

Lesson 3.2: Light

Perform the Launch Pad Activity on page 78-79 of your book.


Light interacts with matter in different ways. Light behaves as wave and particle. What happens
to light when it encounters matter?
How are rainbows formed? How are these color components arranged? It occurs when light travels
through the rain drops. The rain drops serves as a prism in which as the light pass through it, it will
split into different color components. Sir Isaac Newton conducted an experiment on a dark room
and then he created a pin hole and let the lightbeam penetrate the prism. It results to the scattering
of light into its color components.
White light is not a color, it is the presence of all colors while black is the absence of all colors.
On his experiment, he observed that light bends as it passes from a medium (air) to another (prism).
In his activity, the rain drops serve as the prism.

When light bends, it is called refraction and the bouncing of light is reflection.
The rainbows occur through dispersion. The dispersion of light happens when the light passes to
a prism at acertain angle creating seven colors. Electron magmetic spectrum shows the
arrangement of electromagnetic waves in the order of decreasing wavelenght ranging from 400-
760 nm.

1. The sky is blue at daytime because of the distance of the sun to the earth. When the sunlight
travels in the atmosphere at daytime, the sun and the earth has a shorter path which means it radiate
in resulting to scattering. Since our eyes are not sensitive to violet, we only detect color blue. The
shorter the distance from the sun, the shorter the wavelength and the higher the frequency.
2. Rainbows are formed through scattering. This happens when sunlight passes through raindrops.
The raindrops act as a prism in which light propagates.

INFORMATION SHEET 4.1


Heat and Temperature
Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:

• Differentiate heat from temperature at molecular level;


• Explain heat transfer and temperature; and
• Explain how phase change happens.

Lesson 4.1: Heat and Temperature


Perform the Launch Pad Activity on page 87of your book.
In physics, heat and temperature are two different concepts. Heat is the energy that flows due to
the difference in temperature that may result to changes in temperature (measure the hotness or
coldness), its phase and dimensions. This heat transfer happens all the time even we do not see the
actual process but the evidence is there. Understanding concept in heat and temperature is useful
for daily living that help us understand activities efficiently. Heat transfer takes place between
objects or places of different temperatures, and that heat transfers from an object of higher
temperature to an object of lower temperature. Heat can be transferred through conduction,
convection, or radiation

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of an object. This means that temperature is the
measure of kinetic energy possesses by an object. A thermometer is a device that measures
temperature. The S.I unit for temperature is Kelvin.

Heat is the transfer of energy between objects or places because of difference in temperature. The
energy that is actually contained in an object due to the motion of its particles is called thermal
energy. The thermal energy of an object is changed if heat is transferred to or from it.

Since the amount of heat transferred relates to the amount of change in thermal energy, the term
heat in this module is also used to refer to the measure of thermal energy transferred.

Heat transfer: Endothermic and Exothermic Process


Heat transfer occurs by absorbing or releasing of heat and its temperature changes.

56 | P a g e S C I E N C E 8 - J u n i o r H i g h S c h o o l
Outcome-Based Learning Module
Computer Arts and Technological College, Inc.
Legazpi ● Ligao ● Polangui

Endothermic process is the process absorbing heat (higher to lower temperature). If the object
absorbs heat its temperature rises. On the otherhand, Exothermic is the process of releasing of
heat. These process results to phase change.
Object possesses kinetic energy that measures the movement of particle with respect to the change
in temperature. The change in temperature results to a sudden change in the movement of particles.
As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy increases that result to the sudden rapid movement
of particles. This explains the KMT (Kinetic Molecular Theory). Since kinetic energy depends on
speed, the kinetic energies of the particles also vary.

If heat is added to an object, the particles of the object gain kinetic energy and they move faster.
Since temperature is directly related to kinetic energy, any gain in kinetic energy would cause the
temperature to increase. Conversely, if heat is transferred or removed from an object, it loses
kinetic energy, its particles move slower and the body’s temperature decreases. This change in
temperature results to phase change.

Phase Change
Phase change is due to the change in temperature whether it is absorbing or releasing of heat.

2 Processes (Heat transfer always starts from higher to lower temperature)


1. Endothermic-absorbing of heat
2. Exothermic-releasing of heat

Phase Changes:
1. Deposition- Gas to Solid (Exothermic process)
2. Sublimation- Solid to Gas (Endothermic process)

Lesson 4.2: Conversion of Temperature


Most common temperature scales are the Celsius, the Fahrenheit and the Kelvin. Anders Celsius
introduces Celsius scale in 1741 and Fahrenheit scale by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in 1724 and
Lord Kelvin introduce the Kelvin temperature scale in 1848.

Celsius and Fahrenheit Thermometric Scale


On the Celsius scale, the ice point is 0°C (read as zero degree Celsius) and for the Kelvin scale an
ice point is 32°F (read as thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit). An ice point is defined as the temperature
melts under a pressure of 1 atm.
For the steam point (temperature at which water boils under a pressure of 12 atm) on Celsius scale
is 100 °C and on Fahrenheit scale that is 212 °F.

The relationship of Celsius and Fahrenheit scale is:

𝟓
°C = 𝟗 (°𝑭 − 𝟑𝟐)

or
𝟗
°F = 𝟓(°C) + 32

The Absolute Scale

In Kelvin temperature scale the degree is called a Kelvin (K). The S.I unit for temperature is K.
The ice point is 273.15 and the steam point is 373.15 K.
The equation below gives the conversion from Celsius to Kelvin scale:

K=°C + 273.15
Absolute zero is the lowest temperature corresponding to 0 K. Absolute scale is referred to Kelvin
scale and it cannot have negative temperatures.

Here are the summary of all conversion from 3 temperature scale.


𝟗
Celsius to Fahrenheit °F = 𝟓(°C) + 32
𝟓
Fahrenheit to Celsius °C = 𝟗 (°𝑭 − 𝟑𝟐)

Celsius to Kelvin K=°C + 273.15

Useful Temperature Facts

• Celsius and Fahrenheit are the same at -40°.


• Water boils at 100°C or 212°F under 1 atm.
• Water freezes at 0°C or 32°F.
• Absolute zero is 0 K.
• The S.I unit is Kelvin (K).

Sample Problem:
The normal temperature of human is 37°C. Convert this temperature in Kelvin and Fahrenheit.
Given: 37°C

Solution:
Convert 37°C to Kelvin
K=°C+273.15

=37°C + 273.15
= 310.15 K
Convert 37°C to °F
9
°F = 5(°C) + 32
9
= 5 (37°C) + 32

=98.6 °F

Electric Current, Resistance and Voltage

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:

• Describe the relationship between current and charge;


• Describe resistance and voltage; and
• Explain the flow of current.

Lesson 5.1: Electric Current, Resistance and Voltage

Perform the Wordstorm on page 105 and Launch Pad Activity on page 106 of your book.
Overview

Electricity can be generated in different means. We can harness electricity through geothermal,
solar, waves, biochemical and wind. Philippines is known for its natural resources that can generate
electricity. Our life becomes convenient and more comfortable in terms of communication,
education, business, transportation and other necessities because of it. Electrical energy is also
called electricity. There are two kinds of electrical charge the positive and negative charge.
Remember that like charges repel and unlike charges attract.

Electric circuit is a closed conducting path where charges flow. Three essential elements are
important in electric circuit; current, resistance and potential difference or voltage.

Electric Current, Resistance and Voltage


Electric current is the amount of charge passing through any point in a conductor per unit time.
The S.I unit is ampere (A) named after the French scientist and mathematician Andre Marie
Ampere. Mathematically,
I=q/t

where q is the charge in coulombs (C), I is the current in ampere (A) and t is the time for seconds
(s).
1 A=1C/s

The direction of the flow or current depends on the movement of the charges. In conventional
current positive charges were the ones that flow in a wire. Therefore, the flow of charges is from
positive to negative but in reality, it is the opposite of the conventional current. The stream of
electrons from negative to positive terminal of a conducting wire.

Direct current is where current flows in one direction like a battery, sources of direct current.
Alternating current is where current changes its flow at regular intervals like flashlight,
calculators, cell phones and automobiles.

Resistance
Materials differ in the amount of resistance depends on the amount of current flows in a conducting
wire. Resistance opposed the flow of charges. The SI unit for resistance is ohm, named after Georg
Simon Ohm. The unit ohm is being represented by the Greek letter omega (Ω).

Potential Difference
Batteries are sources of potential difference or voltage. Potential difference is the amount of energy
needed to move a charge of 1 C from one point to another. Voltage is the energy in an electric
circuit. It is represented by the capital letter V (volt)
Here is the standard symbol of a cell in an electric circuit.

Lesson 5.2: Circuit


Perform the Wordstorm on page 113 and Launch Pad Activity on page114 of your book.
CIRCUIT
The circuit provides a pathway for an electric current to be carried. The conductors in the circuit
contain many loosely bound electrons, so the energy of the charges can move quickly from the
negative terminal of the power source, through the conductors to the positive terminal of the power
source.

Here is an illustration of simple circuit.

Connecting wire Bulb

Here is the schematic diagram of an electric circuit (parallel circuit).

Wire

Voltage source or
battery
Resistor

There are two types of circuits: series and parallel.


Series circuit contains one or more resistors connected in a single loop or path. Here, the current
flows is the same in all parts regardless of resistance. Christmas tree lights are usually connected
in series circuit.
