    DETAILED LEARNING MODULE


    Title: Free Fall Motion

    Module No. 2
    I. Introduction
    Weight is an important force acting on every object near the earth's surface. In this
    module, you will learn that Motion dominated by the influence of the weight force is
    called freefall.
    II. Content Standard
    The learners demonstrate an understanding of:
    1. Free-fall motion

    III. Performance Standards


    Solve, using experimental and theoretical approaches, multiconcept, rich-context
    problems involving measurement, vectors, motions in 1D, 2D, and 3D, Newton’s
    Laws, work, energy, center of mass, momentum, impulse, and collisions
    IV. Learning Objectives
    After studying this module, you should be able to:
    1. To know the meaning of free fall and the conditions under which it occurs
    2. Solve for unknown quantities in equations involving one-dimensional uniformly
    accelerated motion , including free fall motion (STEM_GP12KINIb-17)
    V. Topics and Key Concepts
    A free falling object is an object that is falling under the sole influence of
    gravity. Any object that is being acted upon only by the force of gravity is said to be
    in a state of free fall. There are two important motion characteristics that are true of
    free-falling objects:
    Free-falling objects do not encounter air resistance.
    All free-falling objects (on Earth) accelerate downwards at a rate of 9.8 m/s/s
    (often approximated as 10 m/s/s for back-of-the-envelope calculations)
    Air Resistance
    Air resistance occurs when the leading surface of a falling object collides with
    air molecules. The two most common factors that can change air resistance are the
    object's speed and its cross-sectional area; an increase in either increases air
    resistance.
    When an object in free fall meets air resistance, the equation is Fnet = mass *
    acceleration, where Fnet is the difference between the force of gravity and the force
    of the air resistance.
    Terminal Velocity

    Terminal velocity is the steady speed of an object freely falling through a gas
    or a liquid. As an object falls and meets an increase in air resistance, eventually the
    air resistance balances the force of gravity. Therefore, the force of air resistance is
    proportional to speed; air resistance increases as the speed of the object increases
    until terminal velocity is reached.
    Egg drop experiments make learning about physics fun, approachable and
    stimulating. Definitely enjoy, but don't forget to apply these important fundamentals
    while crafting your project.
    VI. Teaching and Learning Materials and Resources
    Platform: Google Meet
    Lab Activity: Egg Drop Challenge

    VII. Learning Task


    Million Dollar Egg Drop Challenge
    You will be given a golden, million dollar egg, and you must build a capsule
    for the egg that will allow you to drop it from a great height without breaking! If the
    egg doesn’t break, you will be able to keep it and sell it for a million dollars. If
    however it breaks, at best you get a free omelet.
    Objective
    The challenge is for you to design a contraption using various materials
    (usually recyclables) to protect a raw egg from a high fall.
    Materials:
    Use anything you'd like! Some ideas include: paper towels, straws, tape,
    cardboard tubes, paper, popsicle sticks, baggies or old boxes.
    Illustrate your design in the box.
