A. Reviewing previous
An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a
lesson or presenting the
original position / reference point.
new lesson
Motion can be described by measuring the distance between the
initial position and final position of the object.
Example
A sailboat travelling at 20 kph in a SE direction
Activity
Directions: Determine the following quantities whether it is
velocity or not.
1. 2 miles per hour
2. 10 kilometers per hour South
3. 3 miles per hour East
4. 8 meters per second
5. 15 meters per second North
Activity Strategy Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity.
The formula is,
change∈velocity
acceleration=
change∈time
velocity f −velocity i
acceleration=
t ime f −t ime i
Example:
A passenger vehicle with a speed of 20 m/s slowed down
to 10 m/s in 10 seconds. What is its acceleration?
Step 1: vi = 20 m/s vf = 10 m/s t = 10 s
Step 2: What is its acceleration?

Step 3: ⃑ v f − vi

Another Example:
Questions:
1. What are the objects doing? Moving
2. If an object is moving, it is called acceleration.
3. Acceleration can be change in speed, direction, or
both.
4. In solving acceleration it must have the following:
Time, Initial and Final Velocity
5. An increase acceleration is called positive acceleration
while a decrease in acceleration is called deceleration.
B. Establishing a purpose Group Activity
for the lesson Directions: Analyze and solve the problem below. Show your
solution.
Abstraction
Problem: A racehorse coming out from the gate accelerates from
rest to a velocity of 15 m/s West in 3 seconds. What is its
acceleration?
Application An object moves from 0 to 10 m/s in 1 second. What is the
acceleration of the object?
Generalization Summary
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity.
The formula is,
change∈velocity
acceleration=
change∈time
⃑ ⃑
⃑ v f − vi
a=
t f −t i
The unit of acceleration is written as m/s2.
Deceleration is the opposite of acceleration where the velocity of
an object decreases.
Assignment Solve for the acceleration. Write it in your science notebook. (10
points)
