Word Problems on Speed and Velocity

Valuing: Efficiency

III. Materials: PPT presentation

IV. Procedure
A. Motivation
Students watch a video of Usain Bolt, considered as the worlds fastest
athlete, taken during the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Ask If he covers 100
m in 9.58 s, what is his speed? How many seconds would it take you to
cover the same distance?

B. Presentation
CLS/Brainstorming. Students recall the formulas for getting speed (v)
and velocity (v). Applying their knowledge in ratio and proportions, and
algebra, they derive the formulas for distance, time and displacement.

They may come up with a mnemonic such as below.

Students solve word problems involving speed and velocity using

GRESA.
[1] The cheetah, considered the fastest land animal, can travel 625 m in
25.0 s. What is its average speed?
[2] How far can the cheetah go in the previous problem go in one
minute?
SCIENCE 8 (7) Lesson Plan SY 2013-2014 First Quarter

[3] How long will it take the cheetah to run a distance of 5.0 km if it runs
at an average speed of 25 m/s?
[4] If Cathy, Myra and Eva all take 2.0 h to walk from the house to their
school at a rate of 1.0 m/s, how far is their school from the house?
[5] A Philippine Airlines plane regularly takes off from Manila at 5:30 am
and is expected to land in Zamboanga, 852 km south of Manila at
exactly 7:00 am. What should the average velocity of the plane be if it is
to land in Zamboanga City on time?

C. Processing
Q: What is the difference between speed and velocity?
Q: What is instantaneous speed and average speed? How do you
compute for them?
HOTS: In what areas or aspects in life can we apply our knowledge on
speed and velocity? Sports, games, doing ones job
Value of Efficiency: What is efficiency? How is it related to speed? As
a student, how do you show efficiency?

D. Synthesis
On their notebooks, students differentiate speed and velocity?
Speed is _______, while velocity is _______________.

[1] In 1.8 s, Sylvester, a smart and swift dachshund, caught his prey
that was 8.5 m away. What was Sylvesters speed?
[2] Tommy loves taking care of homing pigeons. He sent a note to his
crush who lives 2.0 km away from his house. These birds fly at a rate of
48.2 km/hr. How long will the note reach Tommys crush?
