Units Used:
Distance/Displacement (d) – meters (m), kilometers (km)
Initial Speed/Velocity (Vi) – meter per second (m/s),
kilometer per hour (km/hr)
Final Speed/Velocity - meter per second (m/s), kilometer per
hour (km/hr)
Time (t) – seconds (s), minutes (min.), hour (hr)
Acceleration (a) – meter per second squared (m/s²), kilometer
per hour squared (km/hr²)
In solving kinematics problems, just like
any other physics problem, it is helpful to
consider the following steps:
Guide Question:
1. What is the used of speed limits?
2. Where can you often find the
speed limit signs?
3. What do you think would happen
if there were no speed limits on the
roads?

Performance Task 1: Observing Speed Limits.
Objectives: Values the importance of following and observing
speed limits on the roads.
Procedure:
1. In a 1/8 illustration board, draw a particular road sign, describe
what the road sign is, discuss its importance and explain the
possible consequences of not following such.
2. Integrate what you have learned about uniformly accelerated
motion. You can cite examples to deliver your message clearly.
3. Your output/performance task will be evaluated based on the
following criteria.
Rubrics.
Focus and Details 30%
Organization of Ideas 30
Clarity of Message 25%
Sentences structure & grammar, 15%
