ACTIVITY
BALANCE AND UNBALANCE FORCE
Name: Section: Date: Score:
Concept:
Forces can be described through its size or strength (magnitude) and direction. Forces are said to be balanced if
the forces acting on the object are equal in magnitude, in opposite directions and they lie along the same line of action.
Forces can be unbalanced if the forces acting on the object do not cancel each other. The existence of an unbalanced force
for a given situation can be quickly realized by looking at the free-body diagram for that situation. Balanced forces keep
objects at rest or in motion at constant velocity. Unbalanced forces can make objects move, move faster, stop, or change
their direction of motion.
I. Objectives:
Knowledge: Explain what balanced and unbalanced forces can do to the amount of change in the motion of an
object.
Skills: Construct a free-body diagram to show balanced and unbalanced forces.
Attitudes: Display critical thinking skill in determining the amount of change in the motion of an object.
II. Materials
Pen, string (1/2 meter), scissors and book
III. Procedure
A. Awareness
What forces can do to an object? Consider this situation, when a ball on top of a table is being pushed, the ball will
move or roll across the surface of the table. And when it is again pushed in the direction of its motion, it moves farther and
even faster. But when you push it on the other side instead, opposite to the direction of its motion, the ball may slow down
and eventually stop. Lastly, when you push it in a direction different from its original direction of motion, the ball also
changes its direction. Force therefore can make objects move, move faster, stop, or change their direction of motion. But is
this always the case? Can force always bring about change in the state of motion of an object?
B. Activity Proper: Demonstration and Observation (Refer to pages 5-6 of Science module)
Set-up 1: book on top of the table
1. Place a book on top of a table.
Is the book at rest or in motion?
Are there forces acting on the book? What are these forces? Illustrate the forces acting on the book through a free-
body diagram.
2. Let one member of your group push the book in one direction and another member push it in the opposite
direction at the same time with the same amount of push (force).
Did the book move? How will you make the book move?
Set-up 2: pen tied with string
1. Hang a pen by a piece of string.
Is the pen at rest or in motion?
Are there forces acting on the pen? What are these forces? Illustrate the forces acting on the pen through a free-
body diagram.
2. Cut the string with a pair of scissors.
What happens to the pen?
What could have caused the pen’s motion?
