What is motion?

Motion is the change in

position of an object
throughout a period of time.
What causes objects to move?

Force can set a stationary object

into motion.
It can speed up or slow down a
moving object.
ARISTOTLIAN GALILEAN
CONCEPT OF CONCEPT OF
MOTION MOTION
 Motion is classified as natural or
violent motion.
He explained that in a natural
motion, a body will move and will
return to its natural state based
on the body’s nature and
composition.
A body moving in a violent
ARISTOTLE motion needs an external force
(push or pull) for it to move.
  He believed that an object thrown at
a certain angle is given an impetus –
a force or energy that permits an
object to move.
 It will continue to move in such state
until the object’s impetus is lost, and
the object returns to its natural
ARISTOTLE state, causing it to stop and fall to
the ground.
  He disproved Aristotle’s claims and
stated that the motion of the body is
not due to its composition.
 He further asserted that “the motion
of the body can be described by
measurement and the changes in
quantifiable variables such as time
GALILEO and distance.”
GALILEI
  Lastly, he further asserted that:
1. A body who is in uniform motion will
move a distance that is proportional
to the time it will take to travel;
2. A uniformly accelerating body will
travel at a speed proportional to
time; and

GALILEI and the external force is not
necessary to maintain motion.
 FRICTION
 Friction is the force that resists relative
motion between two objects in
contact.
 It slows down or stop movement.
