3rd Quarter Activity Sheet
Joni is planning to go to Jojo’s house and ask him about the project in Physics. To reach
Jojo’s house, Joni has to walk to 100 meters going east. Then, he will head to the north at a
distance of 300 meters. Afterwards, he will walk 70 meters going west.
Procedure:
1. Sketch the path taken by Joni to reach Jojo’s house using a ruler, pencil, and a manila
paper. Use the scale 1 inch = 30 meters.
2. Using a ballpen, draw a straight line connecting the starting and last point of Joni’s path.
Question:
What is the difference between the total path taken by Joni and the straight line
connecting the starting and last point of the path?
ACTIVITY 1
HOW NEAR IS FAR?
Read the situation below and do the activity afterwards.

Activity 2. Measuring Distance and Displacement
Objective:
To measure and determine displacement of a 25-centavo coin
Materials:
25 centavo-coin, ruler, paper
Procedures:
1. Place a 25-centavo coin on the number line with the center of the 25-centavo coin at the
position marked zero.
2. Draw a circle around the inside of the 25-centavo coin.
3. Mark the center of this circle with the letter I for the word "initial" position of the coin.
4. Move the coin 8.0 inches to the east. Draw a circle and mark its center with 1.
5. Move the coin again to 2.0 inches to the north. Draw a circle and mark its center with 2.
6. Move the coin for the third time to 3.0 inches to the south. Draw a circle and mark its center
with 3 and label this circle F for the "final" position of the coin.
Guide Questions:
Directions: Write your answers on a separate sheet of paper.
1. What was the initial position of the coin?
2. What is the final position of the coin?
3. What is the distance travelled by the coin?
4. What is the displacement of the coin?

Activity 3: Fun Walk
Objective:
After performing this activity, you should be able to gather data to determine who walks the fastest.
Materials:
stopwatch/timer, marker/chalk/any materials that can be used as marker
Procedure:
1. Start by choosing the participants for this activity. Assign a recorder who will record the data.
2. On a spacious place, mark the starting and finish lines on the ground.
3. Each participant will walk as fast as s/he can to reach the finish line. No running is allowed.
4. The recorder will take note of the time each participant takes to finish the straight course.
5. The participants will walk the course for a total of three tries.
6. You will compute for the average time it takes for each participant to finish the course.
Guide Questions:
Directions: Write your answers on a separate sheet of paper.
1. Who came out as the fastest among all the participants? What about the slowest participant?
2. How did you determine the winners of the game/activity?
3. What quantities did you calculate to determine the winner?
4. How did you combine these quantities to determine how fast or slow the participants walked?
