ENGAGE
(10 mins) Show a video, of a tablecloth being pulled off a table without disturbing
the place settings. Explain to students that through this lesson they will
be exploring how pushes and pulls—forces—on objects cause them to
move or not move.

Guide Questions:
a. Why does the glass move when the tablecloth is being pulled
slowly?
b. Why does the glass stay on the table when the tablecloth is
pulled out quickly?

EXPLORE Explain to students that to understand what is happening in the tablecloth

(10 mins) phenomena, they must first understand how forces work together. To do
this they will use a game called “tug of war.” With the use of Phet
Colorado, allow them to do

Situation C.
1. Position Gimo and Dagul.
Q1. What are the net force of Gimo and Dagul?
2. Click Go
Q2. What was your observation?

EXPLAIN
(15 mins) The following activity may be observed:
 Call the leaders from the group to present the output of the
activity.
 Explain to students that they will now watch the Generation
Genius episode where a full explanation of what happened will
be provided.
 Teacher facilitate a conversation using a discussion question
about balanced and unbalanced forces
 Guide Questions:
a. What is a balanced Force? What makes the force balanced?
b. What is unbalanced Force? What makes the force unbalanced?
c. What is the net force if the forces are balanced?
d. What is the net force if the forces are unbalanced?

ELABORATE
(10 mins) Let the students do Activity 2. Don’t make me fall!

Objectives:
After performing this activity, you should be able to:
1. Examine the situations when the forces are balanced/unbalanced; and
2. Explain the effect of balanced/unbalanced forces on the state of
motion of an object.

Materials:
Pictures

Procedure:
Examine the pictures below.

Answer the following questions:

1. Are the forces acting on the chandelier balanced or unbalanced?
2. What force can make the chandelier to fall

EVALUATE With the use of the plickers cards, students will answer the following
(3mins) questions.

1. What force pulls an object back to the Earth?

A. Applied B. Gravitational C. Magnetic D. Tension

2. Two people pull on a rope in a tug-of-war. Each pull with a 300 N

force. What is the net force?
A. 0 N B. 300 N C. 600 N D. 900 N
3. The sum of all forces acting in an object is called ___.
A. Net Force B. Force C. Gravity D. None of the above

4. If the forces in an object are balanced, the net force is A. 0

B. Equal C. Balanced
5. If the forces in an object are unbalanced, the net force is _____
A. Not Zero B. equal C. Balanced
EXTEND In their science notebooks, have students individually explain the
(2 mins) forces involved in the egg drop demo. Ask them to compare this to the
tablecloth demo from the Engage portion of the activity. Students should
also write a short paragraph explaining how cause and effect
relationships are demonstrated by unbalanced forces and motion of an
object. (Gravity is pulling the table settings down, while the table cloth
and table underneath are pushing them up. Forces are balanced. When
the tablecloth is pulled out with enough force, the forces on the place
settings are no longer balanced and they fall to the table. There are no
forces pulling the place settings to the side so they remain where they
were sitting.)* (Cause and Effect: Motion of an object is caused by
unbalanced forces acting upon it. If an object is not moving, it is because
the forces on it are balanced. When the forces become unbalanced, the
effect is the object moves in the direction of the larger force.) *This is an
early understanding of the concept of inertia based on Newton’s First
Law of Motion
