This document discusses different types of motion including up and down, straight line, round and round, and zigzag motion. It describes how to measure motion through distance, time, and speed. Forces that affect motion include the strength and direction of applied forces, the mass of an object, and friction. Gravity is also identified as a force that pulls objects down toward Earth.

1. How do objects move?

2. - It is the change in the position (Location)
Motion

3. Types of motion
Up and down
motion
Ex. See saw
Straight line
motion
Round and
round motion
Ex. Merry go
round
Zigzag
motion
Back and forth
motion
Ex. Swing

4. How can we measure motion?
- Motion can be fast or low.
Distance
-It is how far an object is from one position to
another.
- Measured by: Ruler & Measuring tape
- Units: Cm, meters & kilometers.

5. Time
- Units: seconds, minutes , hours, days, years.
Speed
-It is the distance an object moves in a certain time.
Speed = Distance/Time

6. Any type of push & pull
Force

7. Things that affect motion of an object
1- The strength of the force:
Toss ball gently it will be near
Toss ball hard it will be far

8. - Pushing the table to the right.
- Pulling the drawer out.
- Pushing the stroller to the left.
2- The direction of the force:

9. - It is the amount of material in an object.
Small mass is easy to move
Big mass is harder to move
{It is easier to push an empty shopping cart
than to push a full one}
3- The mass of the object:

10. - It is the kind of force that stops or slows things
down.
{It prevents us from slipping or falling down}
- It is caused when two objects rub together.
Friction

11. Examples
1) Friction between the tires of a car & the
road.
2) Friction between the bottom of your
sneakers & the ground.

12. 3) Friction between the brakes of the bicycle &
the bicycle wheels.
4) Friction between the train
Wheels & rails

13. Increasing / Decreasing friction
• Ice & water make surfaces slippery, this
decrease the friction.
{This why skaters can slide easily & smoothly}

14. • Tires of cars have rough surfaces to increase
the friction between the road & the car
preventing cars from slipping on an inclined
plane.

15. • Lubricating “putting oil” to bicycles decrease
friction & makes bicycles move faster.
• Lubricating doors decrease friction making
doors easy to open & close

16. • It is the force that pull objects down towards
the earth.
• As the mass of the object becomes larger, the
force of gravity becomes stronger.
Gravity

17. Weight = Mass + Gravity
{Objects with large mass weigh more}
