Abstract

The cultural diversity of the Kaili tribe holds significant potential for ethnophysics
research. However, ethnophysics studies within the Kaili tribe’s culture remain
limited. This study aims to explore ethnophysics in the movements and props of the
Pamonte dance of the Kaili tribe in Central Sulawesi. Data collection techniques
used in this study include observation, interviews, and documentation. The research
data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman data analysis model, which
consists of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion
drawing. The results of the study show that the Pamonte dance applies physical
principles such as normal force, friction force, muscle force, thrust force, and
Newton's laws. Additionally, concepts of potential energy, kinetic energy, velocity,
and acceleration are evident in the dancers' body positions when bending, lifting, or
walking according to the floor pattern. Concepts of torque, moment of inertia,
pressure, translational motion, rotational motion, impulse, and momentum are also
reflected through the dancers' movements and interactions with dance props such
as toru.
