& ENERGY

Name : ______________________________ Year & Section: ____________

TOPIC: Work, Power and Energy
LEARNING COMPETENCY: The learners should be able to identify situations in which work is done
and in which no work is done
Activity No. 5
Is there work done?
I. OBJECTIVES:
1.Identify whether the situations shown represent examples of work .
2.Explain if work is done in situations presented.
II. LESSON OVERVIEW
Sometimes, while working, you might probably hear someone saying, “I exert a lot of
effort, but I’ve done nothing”, or something is done, but nothing seems to be happening. In
layman’s term, work has many meaning but in Physics, the concept might be new to you.
The term “work” in Physics is not the usual word you hear when someone has a job or a
task to be done. Work is a quantity that measures the amount of force in a certain distance. On the
next activity, you will learn how to determine whether there is a work done in a specific scenario.
III. A.MATERIALS:
Pictures of situations that represent examples of work is done and no work is done.

IV. PROCEDURE:

1. Tell whether the situations shown below represent examples of work.

2. Identify the one doing the work and on which object the work is done.
3. Write in your activity 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 a 4. A mango fruit falling from a branch street

V. ANALYSIS:
Q1. In picture 1, who does the work? Determine the direction of the force exerted by the girl in
pulling the cart.

VII. APPLICATION:
Your teacher asks you to push the table across the room so that your classmate can be able
