II. Process

The vehicle will continue to run in the highway in a straight direction. (Newton’s 2 nd Law of

III. Understanding

Without air resistance, why do objects with different masses fall at the same speed?

Gravity works independently on the mass which means that all object falls at the same
speed if there in no gravity. Same as air resistance is a force that opposes gravity. The greater the
surface area of an object the more surface for air to push up against and so air resistance will act
upon a falling object, by slowing its fall. The amount of air resistance depends ob its shaze and size
of the object.

Write the importance and uses of transformation of energy as part of our daily lives.

Energy is needed to make things move. Our body also needs energy but in order to use enegy
it needs to be transformed. An example of this is the food we consumed, it needs to be transformed
into a simple compound called glucose before the body can digest it. But glucose must be burned to
release energy and this process is called respiration. When respiration occur energy is release, then
our muscle will used the energy to it to function.

[C] A mother pushes a stroller up a ramp into a building
[D] A girl eats a sandwich
5. Jan is using a screwdriver to insert a screw. The screwdriver is being used as
[A] A pulley [B] A screw [C] A lever [D] A wheel and axle
6. What does this image represent?

[A] A pulley [B] A wedge [C] A lever [D] A wheel and axle
7. How do pulleys make work easier?
[A] they change the direction of a force [C] the distance over which the force is applied
[B] they change the amount of force required [D] the measurement of an object
8. Wells use a pulley system to:
[A] hoist the bucket [B] provide water [C] drop items [D] nourish water
9. What is a pulley?
[A] a simple lifting machine consisting of a rope which unwinds from a wheel on to a cylindrical
drum or shaft joined to the wheel to provide mechanical advantage.
[B] a rigid bar resting on a pivot, used to help move a heavy or firmly fixed load with one end
when pressure is applied to the other.
 [C] a wheel with a grooved rim around which a cord passes. It acts to change the direction of
a force applied to the cord and is chiefly used (typically in combination) to raise heavy
weights.
[D] a piece of wood, metal, or some other material having one thick end and tapering to a thin
edge, that is driven between two objects or parts of an object to secure or separate them.

II Process: (5 points)
An experiment was conducted using the pulley system shown in the diagram below.

effort rope attatch to the

bottom of the
pulley

The effort needed to left different loads was recorded in the following table

Load (kg) Effort needed (kg)

10 5.1
20 10.2
30 15.2

50 ?

Predict and write in the table above the effort needed to lift a 50kg load.
III. Understanding

State two advantages of using this pulley system. (Refer to the illustration above)
