PERFORMANCE STANDARDS PERFORMANCE TASK SCENARIO

• Use theoretical and experimental approaches to GOAL: Your goal is to compute for several problems.
solve multi-concept and rich-context problems
involving electricity and magnetism. ROLE: You are a theoretical physicist.
• Use theoretical and, when feasible, experimental
approaches to solve multiconcept, rich-context AUDIENCE: You will present your findings to your fellow
problems using concepts from electromagneticscientists.
waves, optics, relativity, and atomic and nuclear
theory.
SITUATION: You are assigned to work on several projects
Apply ideas from atomic and nuclear physics in
• that would test the accuracy of several experimental values
contexts such as, but not limited to, radiation
gathered by your colleagues.
shielding and inferring the composition of stars.

PRODUCT: By the end of this, you are expected to answer

the problems correctly.

STANDARDS: Your output will be scored per problem. Given

is 1 point, required is 1 point, equation is 1 point, complete
solutions with unit cancellations are equivalent to 5 points,
and the final answer with correct unit is 2 points.

PROBLEM SET A

1. Four electrons are situated at the corners of a rectangle (l=4m; w=2m). Find the resultant force

GENERAL REFLECION:

1. As a Marian, how would you help our society with one of its issues which is energy crisis? What
concrete actions can you do despite this new normal? How did our lessons in General Physics 2 during
the third quarter help you in having such realizations? Include some photos of what you do inside your
home to conserve energy.
