LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET Describing Motion of an

Object Background Information for Learners
Describing the motion of object, there must be a change in position with respect to a reference point. A
position or location of an object must be specified at all times from a reference point. A reference
point of an object is defined as the origin or starting point for measuring motion. There are many ways
of describing motion in our surroundings. One way is to relate the change of position to distance and
time. When you study motion, you will come across the concepts of distance and displacement, speed
and velocity, and acceleration.
Distance refers to the total length of the path travelled by an object. Displacement on the other hand
refers to the shortest distance between the object’s initial position and its point of destination, it also
indicates direction where the object is going.
After knowing the difference between distance and displacement, it is also important to know
the rate of an object that is in motion. It is best described when we include the element of time.
In science, anything that is being
timed is called rate. Thus, to know
how fast or slow a body is moving,
we have to get its rate of motion
which is commonly referred to as
speed. Speed refers to how fast the
object is moving. It tells the
distance the object travelled over a
period of time. Velocity and
acceleration both describe motion.
In Physics, velocity is described as
a vector quantity as it has both
magnitude and direction, wherein the magnitude represents speed and direction shows its
direction of motion.
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. Like velocity, this is a vector
quantity that has a direction as well as a magnitude.
Learning Competency with Code

Describe the motion of an object in terms of distance or displacement, speed or velocity, and
acceleration. (S7FE-IIIa-1)
ACTIVITY 1 : FACT AND BLUFF

Directions: Write Fact if the statement describes distance or displacement, and write Bluff, if the
statement does not describe Distance or displacement. Write your answer on the space provided.
______1. Distance is the total length travelled by a moving object.
______2. Displacement is a vector quantity that has both magnitude and direction.
______3. Distance is a scalar quantity since it indicates magnitude only.
______4. Distance has direction.
______5. Displacement is equal to the distance travelled by an object.
______6. Displacement refers to the measure of how far an object.
______7. Distance is the shortest path travelled between the origin and final position.
______8. Distance and displacement are the same.
______9. A man travelled 50 m from his house to the market is an example of distance.
______10. Starting and ending up at the same location results to zero displacement.

ACTIVITY 3: SPEED TEST
Directions: For each situation, identify and calculate the distance travelled, the time that
passed, and the speed.
1. Gary threw a volleyball that travelled 10 m in 3 sec. Calculate the speed of the ball?
2. A cat runs 6 m in 4 s. What is its speed?
3. What is the speed of a car that travels 52 km in 2 h?
4. How long does it take for Angel to reach her friend’s house 50 m away if she has an
average speed of 1.5 m/s?
5. How long does it take for a cyclist to travel 100 m if it goes a speed of 6 m/s?
6. How long will your trip take (in hours) if you travel 350 km at an average speed of 80
km/hr?
7. If Stephen throws the basketball 15 meters in 3 seconds, what is the average speed of the
basketball?
8. How long does it take a mango fruit to fall from a 20m high tree branch at an average speed
of 3 m/s?
