I. OBJECTIVES
A. Content Standards The learners demonstrate an understanding of the force that can
change the shape, size, or movement of objects.
B. Performance Standards
C. Learning Competencies/Objectives Describe what happens to an objects movement when force is
applied to an object at rest.
II. CONTENT Explain the effects of force when applied to an object. (S4FE-

Guide Questions:
1. What is the video all about?
2. What causes an object to move or stop?
3. How does force affect the movement of an object?
3. EXPLORE

#1 The class will be divided into four groups and they will perform an
2. Discussing new concepts experiment. The experiment will only consume 5 minutes. They will

#2
Instruction:
1. Cover the cup with the paper card and put the coin on top of
the card.
2. Flick or pull the paper card with your fore finger in a
horizontal direction. Observe what will happen.
3. Apply lesser and greater force in pulling the paper card with
coin. Compare the result of the two objects.
Guide Question:
1. Why does the coin drop in the cup when the card is flicked
away?
2. What happens to the coin if it was pull slowly and apply
greater force? lesser force?
3. How did you manage to move the coin into the cup?
Instruction:
1. Place the book on the table.
2. Push the book in opposite direction and let your group mate
push the book in opposite direction. Observe what happen.
Guide Question:
1. Is the book at rest or in motion?
2. Are there forces acting on the book? If yes, draw the
direction of the force.
3. Upon pushing the object in the opposite direction with your
groupmate, did the book move?
4. If no, how will you make the book move?
GROUP 3 (Flick the bottle)
Materials:
Plastic bottle filled with water
Thick paper
Instruction:
1. Place the bottle above the thick paper in rough surface.
2. Bring the bottle into motion by pulling the paper slowly.
3. Gradually increases the speed of pulling stop pulling
when the bottle gains a certain speed.
Guide questions:
Materials needed:
Ball
Toy Car
Instruction:
1. Let the ball be in motion applying force to it.
2. Exert a force to make the object stop from moving.
3. For the toy car, let the toy car move by exerting a force.
Guide questions:
1. What are the ways did you do to make the two objects
move?
2. Which among the two objects require greater and lesser
force to keep it moving?
3. How will you make these objects stop while in motion?
5. ELABORATE
1. Finding practical The first Law of Motion was proposed by Sir Isaac Newton. The
applications of concepts law of inertia says that, “an object at rest will remain at rest unless
and skills in daily living acted on by an unbalanced force. This means that there is a natural

and abstractions about
the lesson.
Now, let’s discuss the types of inertia.
Types of Inertia
1) Inertia at Rest
2) Inertia in Motion
3) Inertia in Direction
Inertia in Motion- The fact that an object will carry on at the same
speed until a force is put upon it.
